Hulu has approved three extended-length “Futurama” specials in addition to the series’ upcoming Season 14, the show’s executive producers, cast, and creators said during a San Diego Comic-Con panel on Saturday. The announcements were made at a Futurama panel that included creator Matt Groening and showrunner and head writer David X. Cohen. The team revealed that the new specials are already in production and are described as “supersized” or “XXXL-sized” episodes.
Across the reporting, Hulu’s three new specials are presented as separate from Season 14, expanding the series’ slate with additional feature-length content. One of the specials is Christmas themed, and Deadline reports it is expected to debut in 2027, though further details about the other two episodes were not included in the provided excerpts. Both outlets also note that a new trailer was shown at Comic-Con as part of the announcement. The releases are slated to begin next year for the broader run of specials, with the Christmas episode specifically tied to a 2027 launch window.
