You didn’t think that the Local Heroes were just going to stop without saving the galaxy, did you? Netflix announced today that Kid Cosmic has been renewed for a second and third season. The Craig McCracken creation also has a fresh new trailer. Let’s see what our heroes are up to.
Sure they still have some work to do, but it’s a fun team. In Season 2, which begins on September 7th, “Jo learns what it means to be a true leader as the Local Heroes embark on a space adventure to find the remaining Stones of Power and save the galaxy.”
The cast you have grown to love is also back. We have Amanda C. Miller (Jo), Jack Fisher (Kid), Keith Ferguson (Papa G), Lily Rose Silver (Rosa), Fred Tatasciore (Tuna Sandwich), Bobby Moynihan (Fantos), Kim Yarbrough (Flo), Cree Summer (Queen Xhan) and Tom Kenny (Chuck). McCracken remains as executive producer.
“For me, making three seasons of Kid Cosmic has been one of the most creatively rewarding experiences of my career,” said McCracken. “Working in cartoons, it’s easy to get stuck making the same kind of episodes over and over again. But with Kid Cosmic, we loved the freedom to not only make each season different, but to allow the characters to grow, to change, and to learn from their experiences. In these three seasons of Kid Cosmic, we get to explore the idea of what it truly means to be a hero, as each season focuses on a different character and a different theme. In Season 1, The Kid learns that heroes help; in Season 2, Jo discovers that heroes care; and finally, in Season 3, it is Papa G who accepts that heroes sacrifice.”
The plan is all in place, but does this mean Season 3 will be the end? We’ll have to wait and see. Check back for updates and our continuing coverage.
