Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey, Legion, Gaslit) has been tapped to take over the lead role in the animated series that was originally created by Mike McMahan (Star Trek: Lower Decks) and Dustin Roiland, who was ousted in January amid domestic violence charges.

So out of left field but so inspired. I love it.

How about Rick and Morty? He’s going to be harder to replace there.

True, but the writer's room is the real star of R&M and it's been reported that Roiland stopped collaborating there years ago. Hopefully it'll only be disconcerting for a minute or two, but Solar Opposites being first to have a clip out could make it harder for R&M to pull off "<Belch.> I just sound different now! Wubba Lubba Dub Dub!" without looking like a copycat.
