Kid Cosmic Lands Two-Season Renewal from Netflix

The animated series Kid Cosmic, from creator and executive producer Craig McCracken, has been renewed for seasons two and three by Netflix.

Season two is slated to launch on September 7. In the new season, Jo learns what it means to be a true leader as the Local Heroes embark on a space adventure to find the remaining Stones of Power and save the galaxy.

McCracken commented: “For me, making three seasons of Kid Cosmic has been one of the most creatively rewarding experiences of my career. Working in cartoons, it’s easy to get stuck making the same kind of episodes over and over again. But with Kid Cosmic, we loved the freedom to not only make each season different but to allow the characters to grow, to change and to learn from their experiences. In these three seasons of Kid Cosmic, we get to explore the idea of what it truly means to be a hero, as each season focuses on a different character and a different theme. In season one, The Kid learns that heroes help; in season two, Jo discovers that heroes care; and finally, in season three, it is Papa G who accepts that heroes sacrifice.”
