Good news everyone! Futurama is getting a reboot and it's not far away so we've put together everything we know about it, in anticipation of the new series.

The animated sci-fi comedy series first aired back in the late nineties and last aired back in 2013, with a break between 2003-2008. But, it's back baby! And while you can currently watch old episodes on Disney Plus(opens in new tab), you'll find out everything we know about the reboot from release date, to where you can watch it and more.

If you can't wait for the reboot of the adventure's of Fry, Bender, Leela and the rest of the Planet Express crew then it might be worth checking out our guides for the best sci-fi movies and TV shows on Disney Plus, Netflix and Amazon Prime.

The show's premise is simple – a pizza delivery boy named Philip J. Fry gets cryogenically frozen on New Year's Eve in 1999 and is defrosted a thousand years later. In the future, he befriends a robot named Bender and together they work for Planet Express, an interplanetary delivery service.

Cue loads of intergalactic shenanigans and space-based tomfoolery, along with a few gut punches to the feels. Don't let the fact that it's a cartoon put you off, as Futurama one of the best sci-fi shows of all time that never fails to make us laugh (and occasionally cry).

The one question that everyone wants the answer to, and have done since the reboot was announced, is when will it be released? Well the good news is, we won't have to wait until the year 2999 for it. However, there hasn't been an official release date for the new series as of yet.

We do have a time frame though. Voice actress Lauren Tom (who voices Amy) confirmed in a tweet that the new episodes should be released sometime this Summer. So fans of Futurama and those patiently anticipating its return, should only have to wait a few more months.

Currently, you can stream episodes of Futurama on Disney Plus(opens in new tab) but the new episodes will be released on the streaming platform Hulu(opens in new tab).

If you're US based then Hulu is where you'll be able to stream the Futurama reboot. However, if you're watching anywhere else in the world, Disney Plus will almost certainly be the home of the new series of Futurama since Hulu isn't available outside the US.

There are multiple ways to get Hulu and Disney+ at the moment, but there are a couple of US-exclusive bundle deals that we think are well worth checking out.
