Rick and Morty Season 8 isn't coming until 2025, but we do have Rick and Morty : The Anime coming soon on the 2024 TV schedule to scratch that itch. While we've seen footage that teased the return of big characters and such, there's an additional surprise that arrived with the official trailer that has me all the more curious to stream this upcoming Adult Swim series with my Max subscription . The series will be dubbed in English, and in a move I didn't expect, there's a brand new voice cast.
We know that Rick and Morty replaced Justin Roiland with new voice actors for the main series in Season 7, and now the spinoff's English dub will have an entirely new cast. Adult Swim released the names of the main actors involved in the series, which can be seen below, with the Japanese voice actor first for the original and the English voice actor after: It's confusing to me that Rick and Morty: The Anime went with different voices for the spinoff rather than using Spencer Grammer for Summer, Chris Parnell for Jerry, and Sarah Chalke for Beth and Space Beth. The series even has voice actor Joe Daniels voicing Rick and Jerry.
While it's not necessarily strange in the world of animation to have one voice actor do multiple characters, it's two separate people on the main show. Here's what we know about his time before the Smith family. To make matters even more confusing, the trailer for the anime makes it sound as though actor Keith David will reprise his role as the President of the Uni.
