The universe is the limit!
Series executive producers Dan Harmon and Scott Marder announced the renewal, and were joined on stage by series regulars Harry Belden, Ian Cardoni, Sarah Chalke, Spencer Grammer, and Chris Parnell. The panel also debuted a sneak animatic from a Season 8 episode, set to premiere in 2025.

“From Season One, Rick and Morty set a new standard in adult animation and has shown no signs of stopping,” said Michael Ouweleen, president of Adult Swim. “Dan, Scott and the rest of the immensely talented team behind Rick and Morty are constantly outdoing themselves and I’ll be joining the millions of fans around the world in looking forward to more adventures in the years to come.”
“Nobody wants a universe without Rick and Morty,” added Harmon. “Fortunately, the list of places to go remains infinite.”
“I couldn’t be prouder to have taken this baton pass of a lifetime during Rick and Morty’s fourth season and get us to Season 10,” said Marder. “Getting to go beyond that now is such a gift I can’t wait to give our fans. Rick and Morty – a hundred years – forever!"
