Netflix Details March 2023 Adult Animation Originals ; Cancels Gorillaz Movie
We’re hearing a March 17th premiere date for the highly-anticipated release of Agent Elvis. The Matthew McConaughey-starring series still hasn’t been confirmed for this date yet publicly, so we’ll abide and just list the premiere as TBD. Unfortunately, this is a bit of a slow month for adult animation originals for the largest streaming service in the world, with even not even an anime section highlighted in the sizzle reel below which is highly unusual. The weekly premieres of subtitled content that also gets a dub on Crunchyroll isn’t going to move the needle much for those who are fans of Japanese animation for Netflix, but they are ramping up Eurasian adaptations that you’ll see below. A second season of Tear Along the Dotted Line is increasingly being teased, but the Gorillaz animated movie that was long promised, is NOT happening according to a new report from Stereogum. In the meantime, here’s what IS coming down the pike.

Premiere Date: March 2nd
Netflix today has released the official English dubbed trailer for the second season of the smash-hit Saudi animation sensation, Masameer County. The six-episode series will premiere exclusively on Netflix on March 2nd, 2023.
The trailer for season 2 teases the wild escapades of beloved characters, Saad , Saltooh and Trad the dog, including a daring 24-hour mission, an unexpected ride in an elevator, and a mischievous rocket launch.
Created by Abdulaziz Almuzaini and Malik Nejer, the series follows the comical adventures of the mischievous citizens of Masameer County. In season 1 of Masameer County, which debuted on Netflix in June 2021, we saw the Masameer team heading into a long-standing tribal feud, a media war, and a health craze gone too far. Season 2 builds on the first season promising further exciting stories and humorous entertainment for fans alike.
This series is brought to you as part of Netflix’s five-year exclusive partnership with Saudi Arabian animation studio Myrkott, signed in 2020 to bring viewers Saudi-focused shows and films. Masameer County season 2 will be available on Netflix in 190 countries on 2nd March, 2023.
Network: Netflix
Premiere Date: March TBD
In the series, Elvis Presley trades in his white jumpsuit for a jet pack when he is covertly inducted into a secret government spy program to help battle the dark forces that threaten the country he loves — all while holding down his day job as the King Of Rock And Roll.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
