Today, Hulu revealed the official trailer for Solar Opposites Season 5 at the San Diego Comic-Con. The fifth season premieres on August 12 and will consist of 11 episodes, followed by a Halloween special episode later this fall. A specific date was not announced.
Dan Stevens also announced via a pre-recorded video that the hit adult animation series has been renewed for a sixth season.
Solar Opposites centers around a team of four aliens who are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Dan Stevens) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) only see pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty.
At the same time, Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love TV, junk food, and fun stuff. In season five, now that alien mission partners Terry and Korvo are married, the whole Solar Opposites team is focused on family values.
Mike McMahan and Josh Bycel executive produce Solar Opposites, which is produced by 20th Television Animation. Joe Saunders also produces the series.
In addition to the first four seasons, there was a Christmas special in November 2021, a Halloween special in October 2022, and a Valentine’s special in February 2024.
