It sounds as though Harley Quinn season three will drop on HBO MAX sometime in Summer 2022.

James Gunn has confirmed as a guest star for the upcoming third season of Harley Quinn where the famed director will be voicing himself in an upcoming episode. Sam Richardson was previously announced as having joined the series, so already, the third season of Harley Quinn is getting more epic by the day. Mad Hatter will be one of the new villains that will be featured in the upcoming third season of Harley Quinn which is slated to premiere on HBO MAX sometime later this year.

The new season will see Dean Lorey not returning as the showrunner in favor of new co-showrunners Chrissy Pietrosh and Jessica Goldstein who will be heading up a writer’s room that features more writers that are LGBTQ+ as a result of where the second season ended that saw Harley and Poison Ivy’s relationship that will see further exploration of Poison Ivy’s background in the show’s third season. Jefferson Friedman, the show’s composer, has teased a musical episode of some kind is on the way.

A spin-off series entitled Noonan’s, centered around Kite-Man, is also being developed. Harvey Guillén will be voicing Nightwing in the upcoming season of Harley Quinn. 

Synopsis:

Harley Quinn has finally broken things off once and for all with the Joker and attempts to make it on her own as the criminal Queenpin of Gotham City in this half-hour adult animated action-comedy series. The series features Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy and a whole cast of heroes and villains, old and new, from the DC Universe.

T-Pain let slip in a new interview that a follow-up to Freaknik: The Musical is currently in development. The original 50-minute television special featured T-Pain in the starring role as the titular character along with a ridiculous cast that included Lil Wayne, Young Cash, Snoop Dogg, Sophia Fresh, and Rick Ross, and comedians such as Andy Samberg and Charlie Murphy.  The film revolves around a rap group that heads to Atlanta to participate in the revived Freaknik festival.


Yep….I’ve got my bets on Black Dynamite on this one.

Producer Carl Jones says he tried getting a Black Dynamite revival going at HBO MAX, but the streamer has passed on the project. For those that don’t know, there was a Black Dynamite animated adaptation of the film that has the same name.

Synopsis:

This animated series, based on the 2009 film of the same name, features the exploits of the titular character, a 1970s renaissance man with a kung-fu grip, who doesn’t always think before making decisions. His sidekick, Bullhorn, is the brains behind Black Dynamite’s hard-hitting style. Cream Corn provides comic relief on the mean streets of Los Angeles, while attractive Honey Bee classes up the area. The half-hour series features the voices of a number of the actors who starred in the live-action film, including Michael Jai White in the title role.

 


Comedian Jeremy Kaplowitz of Hard Drive Magazine is teasing that an animated web series starring him about a monkey using a typewriter will be making it’s debut on April 15th. Originally slated to premiere fall of last year, the upcoming short will instead be released to coincide on tax day, which makes sense, because it’s monkeys that work at the IRS.
