The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball Trailer and SDCC Announcement
Hulu has debuted the official trailer for the highly anticipated The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball, a continuation of the BAFTA Children’s and Annie Award-winning series The Amazing World of Gumball.
Additionally, it has been announced that the series will make its franchise-first debut at San Diego Comic-Con on Saturday, July 26.
Fans will be able to join creative team members Ben Bocquelet, Matt Layzell and Erik Fountain and voice cast members Alkaio Thiele, Hero Hunter and Kinza Syed Khan in Room 6BCF from 10:30-11:30 a.m. PT for a sneak peek at the wild stories, big twists, and surreal humor involving Gumball, Darwin, and the other quirky residents of Elmore in The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball.
Welcome back to Elmore, where the laws of reality are a joke, and family life is anything but ordinary. The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball, produced by Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe, will launch Monday, July 28, exclusively on Hulu.
Whether he’s battling an evil fast-food empire, facing off against a sentient AI in love with his mom, or trying to stop Banana Joe from wearing pants, Gumball Watterson drags his brother Darwin, sister Anais, and the rest of the town of Elmore along for the ride. With even wilder stories, bigger twists, and surreal humor, the show is so amazing that they had to rename it!
Created and executive produced by Ben Bocquelet, The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball is a quarter-hour animated comedy series that blends an eclectic mix of media styles – including 2D & 3D animation, CGI, puppetry, photorealism and live action – into a wildly imaginative world defined by its vibrant visual style and sharp meta humor.
Matt Layzell and Erik Fountain serve as the executive producers and series directors. The composer for the series is Xav Clarke, and Joe Sparrow serves as art director.
The voice cast includes Alkaio Thiele as Gumball, Hero Hunter as Gumball’s younger brother Darwin, Kinza Syed Khan as younger sister Anais, Teresa Gallagher as Gumball’s mother Nicole, Dan Russell as his father Richard, and many more.
