Adventure Time: Side Quests

Disney+ and Hulu has announced the June 29 U.S. premiere date of the brand-new animated series Adventure Time: Side Quests, produced by Cartoon Network Studios.

A companion to the beloved original, Emmy(R), Peabody, and Annie Award-winning series Adventure Time, the new series follows young hero Finn and his magical dog best friend Jake as they embark on adventures across the fantastical land of Ooo - partying with cloud people and punching evil in the butt along the way.

Adventure Time captivated audiences with its heartfelt storytelling, playful humour, and richly creative world. Adventure Time: Side Quests builds on the spirit of the early seasons, delivering lighter, self-contained adventures. Designed to introduce a new generation of fans to the land of Ooo, whilst giving existing fans more of what they love, the series brings standalone, silly quests and playful challenges - celebrating the joyful chaos of Finn and Jake's adventures.

Finn the Human is voiced by Sasha Knight and John DiMaggio returns as the voice of Jake the Dog. The series will also reunite fan-favourite characters including Ice King (Tom Kenny), Princess Bubblegum (Hynden Walch), Marceline (Olivia Olson), and BMO (Niki Yang).
