HBO Max revives Adventure Time as one-hour specials

Variety

The WarnerMedia streaming service has ordered four one-hour Adventure Time specials from Cartoon Network Studios that will premiere in 2020. Adventure Time ended its 10-season Cartoon Network run in September 2018. The four specials will be collectively titled Adventure Time: Distant Lands and will continue telling stories of Finn and Jake, the best buds who traversed the mystical Land of Ooo and encountered its colorful inhabitants. “The enchanted world of Adventure Time has mesmerized viewers and critics alike as Finn and Jake right wrongs and battle evil,” said Sarah Aubrey, head of original content at HBO Max in a statement. “The addition of these specials to the HBO Max kids and family programming lineup is sure to make kids everywhere say ‘Slam-bam-in-a-can.’” The four specials will air as "BMO," "Obsidian," "Wizard City" and "Together Again."
