RICK AND MORTY Season 8 Gets an Easter-Themed Sneak Peek
Adult Swim released a new Easter-themed sneeak peek for Rick and Morty Season 8 that fans of the series are going to enjoy. It features Jerry deep in Easter spirit and no one else in his family want to join in on the fun.
This new season arrives later than initially expected. Rick and Morty had maintained a relatively steady annual release schedule. After Season 7 wrapped, Adult Swim confirmed that Season 8 would be delayed into 2025, largely due to production slowdowns tied to the WGA strike.
Then there’s the fact that show has been navigating some major behind-the-scenes changes. Prior to Season 7, Adult Swim parted ways with co-creator and former lead voice actor Justin Roiland.
The show reintroduced itself with Ian Cardoni voicing Rick and Harry Belden as Morty, and to the surprise of many, fans embraced the new voices. The rest of the core cast—Chris Parnell, Spencer Grammer, Sarah Chalke, and Dan Harmon—remains intact.
Harmon, who continues to lead the creative charge, commented on the return: “Nobody wants a universe without Rick and Morty. Fortunately, the list of places to go remains infinite.”
Series showrunner Scott Marder added: “I couldn’t be prouder to have taken this baton pass of a lifetime during Rick and Morty’s fourth season and get us to Season 10. Getting to go beyond that now is such a gift I can’t wait to give our fans. Rick and Morty – a hundred years – forever!”
Season 8 will no doubt continue the absurdist, sci-fi storytelling the show is known for, pushing deeper into the multiverse with its signature mix of genius and nihilism.
Rick and Morty Season 8 kicks off May 25th at 11:00PM ET/PT.
