Two new seasons of the series will arrive in fall 2020, accompanying 55 previous episodes.

Chief Content officer of HBO Max Kevin Reilly says the creator of the original comics Aaron McGruder “is a gifted visionary whose unique style of storytelling is a welcome voice and we are elated The Freemans are making their thugnificent comeback on HBO Max.”

Aaron McGruder will serve as both executive producer and show runner, saying that “there’s a unique opportunity to revisit the world of ‘The Boondocks’ and do it over again for today. It’s crazy how different the times we live in are now – both politically and culturally – more than a decade past the original series and two decades past the original newspaper comic. There’s a lot to say and it should be fun.”
