RICK AND MORTY Showrunner Promises Shorter Wait Between Future Seasons as Seasons 9 and 10 Are in Development — GeekTyrant
For Rick and Morty fans who've weathered the long, unpredictable gaps between seasons (Season 3 to 4 still lives in infamy), we have some good news to share as the wait times between seasons are shrinking.
While Season 8 is set to drop on May 25 on Adult Swim, showrunner and executive producer Scott Marder gave io9 an exciting update during a recent press day.
Not only is Season 9 nearly finished, but the team is already deep into Season 10, and they're sticking to a tighter timeline going forward. Marder shared
'We're now through writing season 10. So we've got a cool view of the whole front 10. We definitely have cool things ahead.'
If that doesn't get you grinning like Mr. Meeseeks, Marder had even more good news about the season that comes after the upcoming one:
'It is almost entirely into color, which is the last stage. I mean, we're through all the heavy lifting on it. It's an excellent season. We just started production on season 10, which is also an excellent season. You should be getting every [new season] a year [after the last one].'
Rick and Morty has had its fair share of delays, some due to writing timelines, others due to industry-wide slowdowns like the 2023 strikes. But Marder's confidence in a more consistent rollout is nice to hear.
The series has already been greenlit through Season 12, so if everything stays on track, fans might actually get a new season each year without needing to rewatch the entire series out of sheer withdrawal.
With Season 8 just weeks away and future seasons already cooking, it feels like Rick and Morty has finally stabilized its portal-jumping schedule.
Time to reset the season countdown clock with a lot less existential dread.
