After teasing us with a clip a few months back, Adult Swim has finally announced release details for the much-anticipated Venture Bros. movie entitled The Venture Bros.: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart that serves as the finale for the beloved animated series.
Created by Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick, Venture Bros. was basically a Jonny Quest pastiche that grew into so much more developing a loyal cult following in the process. However, with a lagging production schedule, it was unfortunately canceled despite all of Season 8 being written. Thankfully, this Venture Bros. movie will hopefully give fans the closure they so badly need.
Check out the trailer and the press release below:
