Hulu Unveils King of the Hill Revival Featuring Older Cast

Hulu is set to revive the beloved animated series King of the Hill later this summer, with original creators Mike Judge and Greg Daniels returning as executive producers and Judge reprising his role as Hank Hill. The new series will feature a time skip, portraying Hank and his friends as older characters adapting to modern life, including new technologies and delivery apps, while maintaining the humor and heart fans expect. Several original voice actors, including Kathy Najimy, Stephen Root, Pamela Adlon, and Lauren Tom, are returning, though the show has yet to address how it will handle characters whose original voice actors have passed away, such as Johnny Hardwick. Hulu has released key art and opened official social media channels to promote the revival, which will be discussed in detail at an upcoming panel during the ATX TV Festival. The revival continues Hulu’s strategy of bringing back classic animated Fox shows and aims to resonate with contemporary audiences without overdoing the modernization. While the exact release date remains unconfirmed, the new King of the Hill series is highly anticipated and expected to blend nostalgia with timely social commentary.
