MTV Entertainment has handed out a straight-to-series order for “Everybody Still Hates Chris,” a reimagined animated version of Chris Rock’s autobiographical family comedy series “Everybody Hates Chris”.
Rock returns as narrator and executive producer of the new series. Sanjay Shah (“South Park,” “Central Park”) serves as showrunner and wrote the pilot inspired by Rock’s experiences growing up as a skinny teenage nerd in a large working-class family in Brooklyn during the late 1980s.
CBS Studios, 3 Arts Entertainment, and MTV Entertainment Studios will produce, while Grant Gish, Ali LeRoi, Michael Rotenberg and Dave Becky executive produce.
“Everybody Still Hates Chris” will be windowed globally across Paramount+ and Comedy Central.
