'Futurama' Revival Ordered at Hulu

"Hulu has ordered a(nother) revival of Futurama," writes Slashdot reader aitikin, sharing a report from Variety. From the report: Variety has learned that the streaming service has ordered 20 new episodes of the adult animated sci-fi comedy series. The revival hails from David X. Cohen and Matt Groening. Cohen developed the original series with Groening, the series creator. Original series cast members Billy West, Katey Sagal, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche, Lauren Tom, Phil LaMarr and David Herman will all return. John DiMaggio, who voiced Bender and several minor characters, is not currently attached. According to an individual with knowledge of the project, the producers are hopeful DiMaggio will return. Should that not happen, Bender will be recast. Production will begin this month with an eye towards a 2023 premiere. "I'm thrilled to have another chance to think about the future... or really anything other than the present," said Cohen. "It's a true honor to announce the triumphant return of 'Futurama' one more time before we get canceled abruptly again," added Groening.
