Gary Godspeed and the crew return on their quest to discover the mystery around 'Final Space' in the new trailer for the third season.

The trailer for season three of Final Space has been revealed. After teasing its release last week, series creator, and star Olan Rogers uploaded the trailer to his personal Youtube channel with the caption: 'Final Space Season 3 PREMIERES MARCH 20TH @ 10:30 PM on Adult Swim'. The new trailer shows a considerably dark tone for the series, which has always managed to balance its comedic premise with some very serious drama.

Final Space is an animated science-fiction series created by Rogers that originally aired on TBS. It tells the story of a boisterous and inept astronaut named Gary Godspeed (voiced by Rogers), who discovers a mysterious little green planet-destroying alien named Mooncake while serving out the final days of his five-year prison sentence. After bonding with the adorable super-weapon, Gary discovers that Mooncake is being tracked down by a powerful telekinetic creature known as the Lord Commander (David Tennant). With a rotating cast of new and unique characters, Gary and Mooncake must embark on a mission to save the universe and attempt to unravel the mystery of what 'Final Space' really is. The show also features the voice talents of other high-profile actors such as Keith David, Steven Yeun, and Fred Armisen.

After an explosive season one finale, season two saw Gary and his friends deal with an ever-growing laundry list of intergalactic challenges, including ancient giant cosmic titans, estranged family members, alternate dimensions, and time-traveling love interests. Final Space has consistently received mixed reviews but has gained high viewing numbers in its run while developing a strong and devoted following. The series has been compared to previous animated shows such as Futurama and The Simpsons, in particular, with Gary Godspeed drawing similarities to the protagonists of those shows, Homer Simpson and Phillip J. Fry.

Rogers has also confirmed that the first two seasons of Final Space will be available to watch on HBO Max on March 1st. This seems to continue the streamer's recent push for 'adult animation'. Last year HBO Max became the new home of the animated Harley Quinn show, which originally aired on DC Universe. A Clone High revival has also been confirmed to be premiering on the platform at some point in the future.

The first two seasons of Final Space originally aired on TBS and was then broadcast on their sister network, Adult Swim, soon after. In 2019 Rogers confirmed that the show would now move its first-run airings to Adult Swim while being simulcast on TBS. The first two seasons of Final Space are also available on Netflix outside of the US.

Final Space Season 3 will premiere on March 20th, 2021, on Adult Swim.
