First Look at Season 9 of Rick and Morty: Photos and Premiere Date Announced by Adult Swim

Adult Swim to Premiere Season 9 of Rick and Morty on May 24

Rick and Morty, the acclaimed animated series, is set to make its highly anticipated return with Season 9 on Adult Swim, beginning Sunday, May 24, at 11 p.m. ET/PT.

The show’s official announcement touts, “Rick and Morty is back, baby! Season Nine is all certified bangers. No AI slop! Just Grade A organic slop, made by real humans with real human traits like back hair and cysts. Please watch, or we’ll have neglected our families for nothing.”

Michael Ouweleen, president of Adult Swim, remarked, “I know it’s my job to say that this show just keeps topping itself, but it also has the benefit of being true. It’s kind of scary what this show unit is doing season over season—just pouring an absurd amount of talent and brilliance into these episodes. From the first frame, you’re going to see great high‑concept insanity with some of the best character writing ever done. Again, it’s my job to say that, but it’s also true.”

Rick and Morty features the voice talents of Ian Cardoni, Harry Belden, Sarah Chalke, Chris Parnell, and Spencer Grammer. The series is executive produced by Dan Harmon and Scott Marder, who also serves as showrunner.

Now recognized as Adult Swim’s top series, Rick and Morty has become a cultural phenomenon on a global scale. Season 9 will debut in over 170 countries across 42 languages. In the U.S., viewers can purchase new episodes from digital retailers the day after they air on Adult Swim. Additionally, the new season will be available for streaming in the U.S. starting August 31.
