Futurama Season 14 release

Entities: Futurama · Hulu · Matt Groening · David X. Cohen · Yayo Guridi

Overview

In mid‑July 2026 Hulu announced Futurama’s return for a fourteenth season, slated to debut Monday 3 August 2026 on Hulu and Disney+. The core voice cast—Billy West, John DiMaggio, Katey Sagal, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche, Lauren Tom, Phil LaMarr and David Herman—will reprise their roles.

At San Diego Comic‑Con later that month, Hulu unveiled the official trailer and confirmed the launch schedule: two episodes dropped on 3 August, with subsequent episodes rolling out weekly. The panel also detailed three extra‑long “XXXL‑sized” specials; the first is a Christmas‑themed episode slated for 2027, while details on the remaining two remain pending. Production is handled by 20th Television Animation, with animation work by Rough Draft Studios and oversight by producers Ken Keeler and Claudia Katz. A crossover episode with Matt Groening’s cancelled Netflix series Disenchantment was also announced, linking the two animated universes for the first time.

Media coverage of the announcement also highlighted a separate development at Disney: the return of The Simpsons’ Kwik‑E‑Mart owner Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, marking the character’s first appearance since 2017.

Disney+ later detailed its August 2026 slate, positioning Futurama as a marquee summer offering alongside new titles such as the Argentine comedy‑police series “Gutiérrez Is Mai Neim.”

When the season launched on 3 August, episodes streamed exclusively on Hulu (also listed on Disney+), with new installments released each Monday. Viewers could access the premiere for free through a DIRECTV five‑day trial that includes Hulu, and the series was promoted as part of bundled subscription packages that combine Disney+, Hulu and HBO Max.
