Futurama is returning with the original voice cast.
An eighth season of Futurama is coming to Hulu. Last year we reported that the animated series from “The Simpsons” creator Matt Groening is returning with 20 episodes. In addition, all the voice actors from the show that premiered in 1999 will be returning, including Billy West, Katey Sagal, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche, Lauren Tom, Phil LaMarr, David Herman, and John DiMaggio. An exact premiere date will be announced soon.
Synopsis
The series follows Fry (West). He is a New York City pizza delivery boy, who accidentally freezes himself and gets defrosted in the year 3000. In this astonishing -new New York, he befriends hard-drinking robot Bender (DiMaggio) and falls in love with cyclops Leela (Sagal). The trio finds work at the Planet Express Delivery Company, founded by Fry’s doddering descendant, Professor Hubert Farnsworth. Together with accountant Hermes Conrad, assistant Amy Wong, and alien lobster Dr. Zoidberg, they embark on thrilling adventures that take them to every corner of the universe and many other places.
