Netflix just dropped the official trailer for the upcoming adult animated comedy series, Exploding Kittens, based on the 2015 best-selling card game. The series will premiere in July 2024 and is from showrunners Shane Kosakowski (Teenage Bounty Hunters, You’re The Worst) and Matthew Inman (co-creator of the card game).
Key voice cast includes Tom Ellis (Lucifer, Players), Sasheer Zamata (The Mitchells vs. the Machines, Home Economics), Suzy Nakamura (Avenue 5, Dead to Me), Mark Proksch (What We Do in the Shadows, Ten Year Old Tom), Ally Maki (The Big Door Prize, Wrecked), and Kenny Yates (ReBroken, Hunt Club).
Exploding Kittens is executive produced by Mike Judge (King of the Hill, Beavis and Butt-Head), Greg Daniels (Upload, The Office), and Dustin Davis of Bandera.
The synopsis reads: “Earth sucks, so God (Tom Ellis) gets fired and sent to Earth to reconnect with humanity. The catch? He’s trapped in the body of a chubby house cat. As part of his rehabilitation, he moves in with a dysfunctional family and tries to solve their problems, but ends up spending a lot of time chasing laser pointers. And to top it off, Godcat’s next-door neighbour, who is also a cat, turns out to be none other than his nemesis, the Antichrist. The result is the ultimate fight between good versus evil…except, Godcat (Ellis) is distracted by a pigeon he saw in the yard and Devilcat (Sasheer Zamata) is busy napping on someone’s laptop.”
Check out the official trailer below.
