Samurai Jack New Season

Adult Swim has just announced a new season of Samurai Jack to launch in 2016. The show will return during Adult Swim's Toonami block and is currently in production in Los Angeles. Time block has yet to be announced.

You read that right folks, the 4 time Primetime Emmy Award winning series that has its roots in the early 2000's is back! Samurai Jack, created by Genndy Tartakovsky follows Jack, a samurai who travelled through time with the quest to head back to where he came from and defeat the demon Aku. The show ended in 2004 but not before cultivating a die hard fanbase that has been clamoring for it's return for just over 10 years. Fans looking for their Jack fix got a small taste in comic form, thanks to IDW.

"I feel like it's culminating to a fever pitch almost." said Tartakovsky in a previous interview with ComicBook.com. "I feel like it's time to maybe finish the story. We've been trying to get the feature off the ground but maybe that's just fate's way of saying this is a television thing and maybe it should be a mini-series or something like that."

 

Yes tell me about it. After 10 years of waiting the wait will be over. I nearly feel outta my chair when I read this.

 

will he finally be able to return to the past undo the future that is aku!!

 

If anyone can do it it's Jack.

 

@Vladnyx I just hope they remember to include his Scottish friend
Jack plus his Scottish friend is a bad ass team, they're both equally skilled and there was that episode where Jack got saved by the Scottish guy (uhhh what was his name) from the sirens.

 

I think I remember that guy, but it's been way way to long to recall his name from memory. My only concern is will they keep the old style animation and try to obtain the original voice actors. It's been 10 years so that has me slightly worried.

 

From the information I got the animator and script writer are the same however the voice actor for Aku died ages ago
