Clone High has become a cult favorite since premiering on MTV in 2002, and though it has been twenty years since we were introduced to high school students that had been cloned from famous historical figures, fans are still clamoring for new episodes. Luckily, to celebrate the twentieth anniversary, one of the original creators of the surreal animated series has dropped some major new on the second season, which has gone radio silent for quite some time following its confirmation on HBO Max.

Clone High first hit the scene in the fall of 2002, with Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Bill Lawrence setting out to tell the story of cloned historical figures that would attend the same high school. The main cast included teenage versions of Abraham Lincoln, Joan of Arc, John F. Kennedy, Gandhi, Cleopatra, and more. While the series only had thirteen episodes to its name and never returned for a second season on MTV, HBO Max is picking up where Miller, Lord, and Lawrence left off. This will work well considering how the first season ended with all the main characters being locked in a freezer, waiting to be freed from their icy prison.
Now These Clones Are Sexy Teens Now
Creator Christopher Miller confirmed on his Official Twitter Account that the clones of Clone High would be unthawed next year, bringing back the beloved franchise in 2023 for its second season following a long period in which no news had been revealed when it came to the animated series return:
Miller and Lord have had quite the career following the arrival of Clone High, with the dynamic duo working on movies including Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, The Mitchells Vs. The Machines, The LEGO Movie, and many more. In each of these projects, the creators are able to blend heart, action, and effective humor in bringing these stories to life, so it should come as no surprise that there were plenty of Clone High fans still waiting on word of the series making a comeback, even twenty years following its debut.
