The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball: Release date news, time, streaming details and more about the upcoming animated revival sitcom

Gumball Watterson is making a comeback. Older? Nope. Wiser? Definitely not. But he is back, and he is bringing his signature brand of absurd, fourth-wall-breaking mischief with him in The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball. The original series, which was titled The Amazing World of Gumball, concluded its sixth season in 2018, and fans can finally return to Elmore for a whole new chapter that promises to be as chaotic, hilarious, and lovingly unhinged as ever.

The animated revival, The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball, marks the official seventh season of The Amazing World of Gumball. Apart from being rebranded with a new name, there are a couple of fresh voices, and — yes — a burger-fueled conspiracy to kick things off.

Set to premiere in the United States on July 28, 2025, the new season will be available to stream on Hulu (with an added subscription) and will roll out internationally via Cartoon Network and HBO Max starting October 6. So, wherever you are in the world, Gumball’s nonsense will find you.

With a whopping 40 episodes locked and loaded, this season isn’t just a soft relaunch — it is a full-blown comeback tour. While it promises to keep the core Watterson energy intact, the revival also updates the cast with new voice actors for Gumball, Darwin, and Anais, ushering in a new era that feels both nostalgic and refreshing.

New faces, familiar chaos: What’s changed in Elmore?

Let’s talk about the switch-up. The biggest shakeup in The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball is behind the mic. Alkaio Thiele, Hero Hunter, and Kinza Syed Khan now voice the Watterson siblings—Gumball, Darwin, and Anais respectively, while beloved veterans Teresa Gallagher and Dan Russell return as mom Nicole and dad Richard. This subtle blend of old and new is aimed at helping the series find its footing in a changing cartoon landscape without sacrificing its identity.

The premiere episode, titled The Burger, leans right into the show’s trademark satire. The plot? Gumball and Darwin’s attempt to eat healthy quickly devolves into a deep dive into a fast-food monopoly controlled by one villainous Mr. Bilderburger. Yes, it’s hilarious, it’s weird. And yes, it might make you side-eye your next grocery store trip. Welcome back, Elmore.
