First Look At “King Of The Hill” Revival
This summer, the eagerly awaited revival of the hit animated hit, “King Of The Hill” is coming to our screens, and Disney has released a new poster for the show, giving us a first look at the new series.
The original “King Of The Hill” was set in the fictional Arlen, Texas, followed the life of Hank Hill, an enthusiastic seller of propane and propane accessories; his wife, Peggy, local Boggle champ and substitute teacher; and their 13-year-old son, Bobby, who defies any expectation his father had for a son. Hank’s friends – conspiracy theorist Dale, military barber Bill and cool but inarticulate Boomhauer, along with Peggy’s friends Minh and meteorologist Nancy, and Bobby’s friend Connie help the Hills navigate a changing world.
The revival now takes place in present-day USA, which is why the new poster features modern technology such as a drone, a VR headset, an electric scooter and an iPad, to highlight that this show has had a bit of a time jump to allow a new audience to fall in love with these characters.
Check out the new poster below:
Many of the original voice talent return, including Mike Judge, Kathy Najimy, Stephen Root, Pamela Adlon, Johnny Hardwick and Lauren Tom.
The new show is being produced by 20th Television Animation and is being created and executive-produced by the original co-creators, Mike Judge and Greg Daniels. Also joining the show as an executive producer is Saladin Patterson, who will be the showrunner. Additionally, 3 Arts’ Michael Rotenberg and Howard Klein, and Bandera Entertainment’s Dustin Davis serve as executive producers of the show.
