If you’re a Day 1 fan of Adventure Time, you probably felt a bittersweet wave of sadness when the series ended its epic run in 2018. Finn and Jake captured our imagination and hearts with their friendship and random quests around the Land of Ooo. Now, they — and others from Candy Kingdom and beyond — are set for a new series, Adventure Time: Side Quests, which will dare to take us along for their sentimental, interesting and sometimes ridiculous dilly-dallying. It’s why we love them.
The show will debut on Disney Plus and Hulu this summer on Monday, June 29, in a season that’s also giving us more Cartoon Network joy in the form of the new series Regular Show: The Lost Tapes (also due to stream in June). Remember the catchy jingle that reminded us of the fun two-fer, “Regular Time, Adventure Show!”? A time was had.
In addition to Finn and Jake, Adventure Time: Side Quests will see the return of Ice King (voiced by Tom Kenny), Princess Bubblegum, Marceline and BMO. John DiMaggio will reprise his voice-acting role as Jake, and Finn is voiced by Sasha Knight.
“Making Side Quests felt like making the original Adventure Time, which felt like hanging out with art school buddies making professional cartoons,” said Nate Cash, the series’ showrunner and executive producer. “That sounds like a big sandwich of feelings, and it was! You’re going to love these NEW adventures with Finn & Jake!”
Since Adventure Time ended, its episodes are available to stream on HBO Max, Hulu and Disney Plus. Two original spinoffs have also launched on the platform: Adventure Time: Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake.
