The famous animated TV series Rick and Morty gets a new opening intro day ahead of its Season 6 premiere on Netflix on September 4. Adult Swim posted the latest intro weeks after the Season 6 official trailer was released, teasing new plotlines in the upcoming seasons.
The sci-fi comedy has gained a considerable fanbase since its release on Netflix in 2013. Season 6 comes out in 2022 after a recent renewal for four or five more seasons. With Season 7 and Season 8 already in production and development, the showrunners have planned annual seasons for the black comedy.
The show’s frenzied Season 5 finale had led to the destruction of the Central Finite Curve and the Smith family’s disconnect from traveling to different universes. The Season 6 trailer then teased a new threat to their universe titled Wormageddon, which they must now face at a disadvantage.
The worms appear in worldwide locations via teleporting holes opened by an unknown but powerful entity. Theories state that Wormageddon is the threat posed by the new Season 6 villain to be fought by Rick and Morty.
Season 5 had mainly focused on Evil Morty’s villain, but Season 6 will probably introduce a fresh new antagonist, the one responsible for Wormageddon.
The new intro doesn’t feature the old and new main threats that the titular duo have or will face. But that doesn’t mean that the intro hasn’t teased many scenes we’ll see in the upcoming seasons.
Adult Swim posted the new opening on YouTube and the video featured some interesting clips and possible storylines.
The clips included the grandfather-grandson duo getting attacked by a savage giant flying squirrel, a butter variation of Morty melting away in a frying pan, clone Beth leading a parade with a blow-up balloon of Rick, and a Sherlock Holmes parody.
Season 6 will explore the Smith family no longer playing hide-and-seek through multiversal travel but facing threats head-on, setting a more intriguing story for the upcoming seasons.
