Rick and Morty creators Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon shared an exciting update on the show's fifth season, confirming that the team are working hard crafting new episodes during this pandemic situation.
Fans had to wait a long time for Season 3 and Season 4, and while the productions of many TV series and Movies are on pause, it looks like Rick and Morty is not one of them.
"We had already finished season 4, and the writers are working on season 5 in two-hour blocks through Zoom," Harmon confirmed to The Wrap in its Emmy Special.
This is definitely a good news for those who are eagerly waiting for Season 5 after the finale of Season 4 last month.
Roiland also added that taking their planning online to the digital writers' room has helped in the animation perspective and it's "actually kind of awesome".
"In the digital writers' room, you can screen share and I can have my Cintiq [a digital drawing tablet] and I can be drawing something that everyone is seeing and then I can take that off and we can pop back over to the scripts," he explained.
"The nice thing about that is now my drawings are saved vs. a photo of a white board."
It is sure that Season 5 will premier this year or during the early 2021. Whenever it is, it will truly be worth it.
