The adult animated series, created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, follows a sociopathic genius scientist who drags his inherently timid grandson on insanely dangerous adventures across the universe.
It features the voices of Ian Cardoni as Rick and Harry Belden as Morty — beginning in Season 7 following Roiland’s exit — as well as Chris Parnell, Spencer Grammer, Sarah Chalke and Harmon, to name a few.
Rick and Morty was the No. 1 comedy across all of cable during seasons 3, 4, 5 and 6, according to Adult Swim, and has received two Emmys for Outstanding Animated Program.
“Nobody wants a universe without Rick and Morty,” said Harmon in a statement. “Fortunately, the list of places to go remains infinite.”
Added Marder: “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!”
Sitting court at today’s show panel at New York Comic Con were executive producers Harmon and Marder and cast members Belden, Cardoni, Chalke, Grammer and Parnell.
