Gumball Is Back — and Weirder Than Ever!

The blue cat with a knack for chaos is officially returning to screens worldwide! Cartoon Network International has just dropped the teaser trailer and logo for its brand-new series:
“The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball” — a continuation of the much-loved and critically acclaimed show The Amazing World of Gumball.

Set to premiere later this year, the series will stream on Cartoon Network channels globally, on Hulu in the U.S., and HBO Max internationally.

Welcome Back to Elmore

The new series brings us right back to the absurd town of Elmore, where reality bends, logic is optional, and daily life is hilariously chaotic.

Official Synopsis:

“Whether he’s battling a fast-food empire, dealing with a sentient AI crushing on his mom, or stopping Banana Joe from wearing pants — Gumball Watterson is still dragging Darwin, Anais, and the rest of Elmore into ridiculous adventures.”

It’s wilder, weirder, and more wonderful than ever. So much so, they had to rename the show.

A Legacy of Visual Brilliance

The show continues its tradition of media mashup madness — blending:

  • 2D & 3D animation

  • CGI & puppetry

  • Photorealism

  • Even live-action elements

This eclectic mix defines Gumball’s unique, meme-worthy style that fans of all ages love.

Behind the Scenes: Creative Team & Voice Cast

Executive Producers:

  • Ben Bocquelet (original creator)

  • Matt Layzell & Erik Fountain (series directors)

  • Alkaio Thiele as Gumball

What the Creators Are Saying

“Fans can expect more misadventures, more Elmore weirdness, and the same wild humor,” said Bocquelet, Layzell, and Fountain.
“Gumball and Darwin haven’t grown up much — and honestly, neither have we.”

Why Fans Are Excited

Since its original debut, The Amazing World of Gumball earned:

  • Multiple BAFTA Children’s Awards

  • An International Emmy

Its meta humor, diverse animation, and lovable characters made it a cult favorite — and this continuation promises to elevate it even further.
