FOX ENTERTAINMENT RENEWS DAN HARMON ANIMATED COMEDY "KRAPOPOLIS" FOR A FOURTH SEASON AS ANNOUNCED DURING SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON PANEL

Unique Storytelling and All-Star Cast Prompt Network to Green Light Additional Season in Advance of Krapopolis' Season Premiere This Fall

Hannah Waddingham Garners Series First Emmy(R) nomination for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance

FOX Entertainment and its Emmy-winning animation studio Bento Box Entertainment have renewed the Dan Harmon (co-creator of Rick and Morty, creator of Community) animated comedy Krapopolis for a fourth production season. The news was announced by Harmon during FOX's Animation Domination panel at San Diego Comic-Con, and comes in advance of Krapopolis' new season premiere on Sunday, September 29 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT).

The series, wholly owned by FOX Entertainment and distributed by its worldwide sales and distribution unit, FOX Entertainment Global, has been a standout for the iconic FOX Animation Domination programming block. Krapopolis recently received its first Emmy(R) nomination in the upcoming 76th Primetime Emmy(R) Awards with actress Hannah Waddingham recognized for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance as "Deliria."

"For all our Krap-devotees, there was no better place to decree another season of Krapopolis than the annual San Diego Comic-Con fan fest and no one better to deliver the proclamation than our brilliant creator and executive producer, Dan Harmon," said Michael Thorn, President of FOX Television Network. "Dan and his team have created something special with this series, and now that Season Four is etched in stone, we'll be keeping those once-in-a-millennia laughs rolling on FOX Animation Domination."

Krapopolis is set in mythical ancient Greece and tells the story of a dysfunctional family of humans, gods and monsters that try their hand at running the world's first cities - without trying to kill each other, that is. The series features the voices of Emmy Award winner Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso), Richard Ayoade (The IT Crowd), Matt Berry (What We Do in The Shadows), Pam Murphy (Mapleworth Murders) and Duncan Trussell (The Midnight Gospel).

Krapopolis is an outgrowth of Harmon's direct animation deal with FOX Entertainment. In the series, Ayoade voices "Tyrannis," the mortal son of a goddess. He's the benevolent King of Krapopolis, trying to make do in a city that lives up to its name. Waddingham plays "Deliria," Tyrannis' mother, goddess of self-destruction and questionable choices. Deliria is as petty as she is powerful, and only seems interested in defending civilization if it means she'll get more worshipers out of it than her frenemies up on Mt. Olympus. Berry is "Shlub," Tyrannis' father, a mantitaur (half centaur [horse + human], half manticore [lion + human + scorpion]). He's the self-described life of the orgy. A true pleasure seeker who thinks that everyone should just chill out and, if they need him for anything, he'll be down at the bar. Murphy voices "Stupendous," Tyrannis' half-sister, daughter of Deliria and a cyclops. Trussell plays "Hippocampus," Tyrannis' half-brother, offspring of Shlub and a mermaid, and, obviously, a hot mess, biologically speaking.

Krapopolis is produced by FOX's Bento Box Entertainment. Dan Harmon is creator and executive producer. Steve Levy is executive producer. Alex Rubens is executive producer and showrunner.
