Luke Wilson Is “Fired On Mars” In New HBO MAX Trailer…Not Pete Davidson

Originally slated to have Pete Davidson, HBO MAX has finally launched the trailer for its long-awaited new adult animated comedy called Fired On Mars which now has Luke Wilson in the starring role. Joining with him over the course of eight episodes is Leslie David Baker, Cory Loykasek, Stephen Root, and Cedric Yarbrough. Upcoming guest stars include Pamela Adlon, Thomas Haden Church, Tim Heidecker, Frankie Quinones, Emily Watson, and Sean Wing.

In Fired On Mars, Jeff Cooper (Luke Wilson) has it all: a fulfilling career as the graphic designer for space start-up Mars.ly, a relationship with his soon-to-be Red Planet-bound girlfriend, Hannah, and… well, maybe that’s it. But when his bosses unceremoniously eliminate his role, Jeff finds himself jobless and unable to return to Earth. Adrift in the sprawling office colony, Jeff is forced to reinvent himself as he attempts to find meaning in a dangerous, alien, yet all-too-familiar corporate landscape. An existential and irreverent animated comedy series, FIRED ON MARS explores the precarious relationship between work and self…light years away from Earth.

Created and executive produced by Nate Sherman and Nick Vokey; executive producers Carson Mell (“Silicon Valley,” “Eastbound and Down,” “Tarantula”) and Brian A. Miller; co-executive producer, Luke Wilson; supervising producer, Jackie Buscarino.
