The Rick and Morty Season 9 release date is highly anticipated. As one of Adult Swim’s flagship animated series, Rick and Morty blends absurd interdimensional adventures with sharp satire and emotional storytelling. Following a strong season 8, fans are eager for what comes next in the chaotic universe of Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith.
What is the Rick and Morty Season 9 release date estimate?
The Rick and Morty Season 9 release date estimate is late 2026 or early 2027. This is based on creator Dan Harmon’s confirmation that writing for Season 9 was already underway before Season 7 aired.
Season 8 faced production delays due to the Writers Guild of America strike, leading to a longer gap between releases. However, with no new strikes announced and scripts already in development, it’s likely the production pipeline will move faster this time. The show is also renewed through Season 12, giving the creators ample runway for scheduling and planning.

Season 8 concluded with emotionally charged episodes and multiverse twists that left viewers with lingering questions. As of now, Season 9 does not have a trailer or detailed synopsis, but updates confirm its development is on track. Additionally, Dan Harmon is producing a new Netflix series titled Haunted Hotel, which may serve as filler content for fans during the wait.
The confirmed cast for Rick and Morty Season 9 includes:
- Ian Cardoni as Rick Sanchez
- Harry Belden as Morty Smith
- Chris Parnell as Jerry Smith
- Spencer Grammer as Summer Smith
- Sarah Chalke as Beth Smith and Space Beth
- Dan Harmon as Bird Person
- Tom Kenny as Squanchy and Gene
- John Allen as Mr. Poopybutthole
The plot is expected to feature more high-concept sci-fi adventures, alternate realities, and evolving character arcs, continuing the show’s tradition of blending comedy with existential stakes.
A trailer has not yet been released, but fans can expect previews as production progresses.
