First Poster Art for the KING OF THE HILL Revival Series — GeekTyrant
Hulu has released the first poster art for Mike Judge and Greg Daniels's revival of the hit animated series King of the Hill , and it shows us that times have changed. As for the setting of the series, it previously reported that the revival would be set 15 years after the original show ended and center on the middle-class Hill family living a normal life in Texas in the wake of Trump's presidency. It was previously revealed that Bobby is 21 years old and he became a chef. It was explained that he has "loved food his whole life." He has a fusion restaurant, and his career as a robata chef "was inspired by his most cherished memory of all — weekends spent grilling with his dad.' A biography for Bobby further details that Bobby is a "self-taught chef" and "one of the youngest contestants on King of the Grill." Pamela Adlon, who voiced Bobby Hill on the original show, will return to voice the character. She said: "We're in the second season [creating] the reboot, and Bobby is 21. 'He's a chef in a fusion restaurant in Dallas. And it's been incredible. It's just been really fun. I think it's been freakier for Mike and Greg to think about Bobby going from 12 to being 21 and having a relationship and being a person. 'But don't we all go through that with our kids and our friends' kids? It is shocking when I see my friends' kids and they're all grown up. And I'm like, 'Wait a second, what just happened?' So, it's just a little bit of a mess." Craig Erwich, president, ABC Entertainment, Hulu and Disney Branded Television streaming originals said in a previous statement: 'We are all so excited to welcome back Hank, Peggy and Bobby, and to see what they have to say about the world we live in and continue the conversations we began years ago. 'This show has all of the perfect ingredients to meet this moment in animation at Hulu, and we're so thankful to be having those conversations alongside this talented group.'
