Adult Swim has renewed its animated comedy President Curtis for a second season — before the show has even aired its first episode. The renewal was announced at San Diego Comic-Con, with production on Season 2 already underway, according to AWN and The Futon Critic.
The Rick and Morty spinoff stars Emmy Award-winning actor Keith David as President Andre Curtis. Its series premiere is set for Sunday, July 26, 2026, at 11:30 PM ET on Adult Swim, right after the Rick and Morty Season 9 finale. Episodes will stream the next day on Max.
Comic-Con Panel Sparks Early Season 2 Greenlight
Adult Swim made the surprise renewal announcement during the show's San Diego Comic-Con panel. The event featured Keith David alongside co-stars Stephanie Beatriz and Jim Rash. Co-creators Dan Harmon and James Siciliano also appeared, per ComicBook.com.
Executives at Adult Swim pointed to the show's strong pre-premiere buzz as a key reason to move fast. The network praised David's voice performance and the early momentum around the series. Getting a renewal before Episode 1 even airs is rare in TV animation.
Season 2 Brings New Cryptid Threats and Bigger Missions
Season 2 will push President Curtis into wilder territory. The new episodes will feature dangerous new cryptid threats, complicated alliances, and bizarre missions. Storylines will include interdimensional diplomacy, paranormal investigations, and unexplained phenomena, according to The Futon Critic.
The production team is also growing. Three new executive producers — Danielle Uhlarik, Monica Mitchell, and Steve Levy — are joining the show. They will work alongside returning executive producers Dan Harmon and James Siciliano.
President Curtis Fits Into a Rick and Morty Universe Renewed Through Season 12
President Curtis is not a stand-alone bet. It sits inside a much larger franchise. Adult Swim has already renewed Rick and Morty through Season 12, giving the whole universe a long runway, Head Topics reported.
The franchise is also eyeing the big screen. Jacob Hair, the supervising director on Rick and Morty, was reportedly in talks to direct an animated feature version of the series for Warner Bros. That deal would extend the Rick and Morty brand well beyond television.
Keith David Leads a Cast Built for the Rick and Morty World
Keith David voices President Andre Curtis, the show's central character. David is an Emmy Award winner with decades of voice work behind him. Stephanie Beatriz and Jim Rash round out the main cast, bringing sharp comedic energy to the series, per AWN.
Dan Harmon, who co-created Rick and Morty, serves as co-creator here too alongside James Siciliano. The team's track record helped sell Adult Swim on a second season before audiences had seen a single minute of the show.
