Tuca & Bertie Trailer Sets Season 3 Release Date
Tuca & Bertie has officially set its return date for Season 3 of the Adult Swim animated series with a brand new trailer! The path to a third season had been a strange one as Tuca & Bertie originally started out life as an original Netflix animated series before being unceremoniously canceled following its debut. That first season was such a hit that Adult Swim immediately picked up the series for a second season, and following that new season quickly confirmed that there were already plans in place to bring the franchise back for a third. With previous reports noting a Summer debut for the third season, now Adult Swim has confirmed Season 3 will be hitting next month!
Original series creator and executive producer Lisa Hanawalt teased the upcoming season as such in a statement to Adult Swim, "I can't wait for everyone to catch up on all the latest calamity and soul-searching from these birds...Season three is packed with romance, chronic pain, ambition, large ducks, lustful trees, and hungry snakes!" With Tuca & Bertie confirmed to be releasing on Adult Swim beginning July 10th (and HBO Max the next day), you can check out the debut trailer for the new episodes below:
While the second season already introduced plenty of new faces and voices, the third will be continuing this trend with even more surprises. Joining the cast for the third season are guest stars such as Justina Machado, Matthew Rhys, Nico Santos Janelle James, Maria Bamford, Paget Brewster, Nicole Byer, Margaret Cho, Kether Donohue, Cole Escola, Victoria Moroles, Randall Park, Paul F. Tompkins, and more. Adult Swim teases Tuca & Bertie Season 3 as such:
"The critically acclaimed animated series stars Tiffany Haddish (Tuca) and Ali Wong (Bertie) as colorful bird girl besties who navigate the ups and downs of adulting in life, love, and everything in between. It's another confidently weird season of Tuca & Bertie, full of new emotional and vegetative growths! Tuca is dating someone new. Will this relationship bear fruit? Bertie has a new boss. Will they be sweet or salty? Speckle (Steven Yeun) is also going through some stuff!"
If you wanted to catch up with Tuca & Bertie before the new season hits, you can find the first season streaming with Netflix and Season 2 will be streaming with HBO Max beginning on June 24th.
