‘Rick and Morty’ Season 10: Everything We Know So Far About Its Release Date, Cast and Future

Rick and Morty fans have barely had time to process the Season 9 finale before conversations about ‘Rick and Morty‘ Season 10 started heating up. The animated sci-fi hit has been a fixture of adult animation since 2013, and the appetite for more interdimensional chaos with Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith has never really cooled.

With Season 9 wrapping up its ten episode run, fans are now hungry for details on what comes next for the Smith family. Here is everything currently known about the upcoming season, straight from the reporting that has surfaced so far.

‘Rick and Morty’ Season 10 Release Date

Season 10 is confirmed to exist thanks to a long-term deal struck years ago. Adult Swim announced back on May 10, 2018 that the series was renewed for 70 additional episodes as part of a long-term arrangement with co-creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, a deal that included a tenth season.

Production has been steadily moving forward since then. Showrunner Scott Marder revealed at New York Comic Con on October 17, 2024 that the writers were almost finished with the first pass of Season 10 scripts, and executive producer Steve Levy confirmed on September 25, 2025 that the season had entered production.

More recently, an animatic from a Season 10 episode was reportedly shown at the ‘Rick and Morty’ Season 9 panel at San Diego Comic Con on July 24, 2026, giving fans their first real glimpse of what is coming.

As for an actual premiere date, one outlet has reported a specific window. ‘Rick and Morty’ Season 10 is expected to premiere on June 1, 2027, with the first episode airing at 1:30 a.m. PT and 4:30 a.m. ET on Adult Swim. That same report notes each episode is expected to run roughly 23 minutes, official episode titles have not yet been announced, and a teaser trailer is anticipated in early May 2027. It is worth noting this is the final season covered under the original 70 episode order, since the Fandom wiki confirms this is also the last season to be part of the 70 episode renewal ordered in 2018.

‘Rick and Morty’ Season 10 Cast

The core voice cast is expected to remain intact for the new episodes. According to reporting from Yahoo, the main cast for ‘Rick and Morty’ Season 10 will include Ian Cardoni, Harry Belden, Sarah Chalke, Chris Parnell and Spencer Grammer.

Those names line up with the characters fans have grown to love and occasionally fear. Ian Cardoni voices Rick Sanchez, the genius scientist and alcoholic whose inventions and experiments serve as the basis for the show’s episodes, while Harry Belden plays Morty Smith, Rick’s impressionable grandson who is constantly dragged along on his grandfather’s escapades.

The rest of the Smith family rounds out the ensemble. Sarah Chalke voices Beth Smith, Morty’s mother and a cardiac surgeon for horses, while Chris Parnell plays Jerry Smith, Morty’s insecure father whose disapproval of Rick’s influence only deepens his marital troubles with Beth. Spencer Grammer continues as Summer Smith, Morty’s angst ridden older sister who occasionally joins Rick on his own adventures.

The production side also remains consistent with recent seasons. Scott Marder continues on as showrunner, a role he has held across the most recent stretch of the series, and the show remains executive produced by Dan Harmon alongside Marder.

Rick and Morty Future Beyond Season 10

What has really gotten fans buzzing is just how far ahead the writers room is already thinking. Speaking with ScreenRant, showrunner Scott Marder revealed that development on the show has gone as deep as Season 12, adding that there are plans for all sorts of things moving down the pipeline.

That comment suggests the wait between seasons could shrink going forward. Since premiering in 2013, the show settled into a pattern of roughly two year gaps between seasons, though it found a more consistent rhythm between Seasons 5 and 7, and Marder’s remarks about future seasons hint at a tighter release schedule so fans will not have to wait as long between new batches of episodes.

Beyond the flagship series, the ‘Rick and Morty’ universe is expanding on multiple fronts. An untitled ‘Rick and Morty’ movie is also in the works, with series veteran Jacob Hair reportedly in talks to direct, though it remains unclear whether the film will tie into the upcoming seasons or whether it will get a theatrical release rather than heading straight to streaming.

On top of that, the franchise is also getting a spin-off centered on President Curtis, voiced by Keith David, expected to arrive alongside new seasons streaming on Hulu and HBO Max.

‘Rick and Morty’ Season 10 Plot Expectations

Concrete plot details for Season 10 have not been made public yet, which is fairly typical for the secretive way Adult Swim handles new seasons until closer to premiere. What is clear is that the show has spent its recent seasons leaning further into the emotional fallout facing the extended Smith family, with Morty and Summer increasingly stepping into the spotlight without Rick around to bail them out.

Given how Season 9 focused heavily on the growing independence of the Smith siblings, it would not be surprising if Season 10 continues threading that needle between cosmic absurdity and genuine character growth. Fans hoping for answers on lingering multiverse plot threads will likely need to wait for official synopses or a trailer closer to the 2027 premiere window.

For now, the wait continues, but between a confirmed Season 10, whispers of a movie, an animated spin-off, and a showrunner already dreaming about Season 12, it is safe to say ‘Rick and Morty’ is not slowing down anytime soon. What are you hoping Rick and Morty do with their newfound independence when Season 10 finally lands?
