The recent ViacomCBS Investors Event (February 15) covered a variety of news – including the announcement that ViacomCBS will now go under the Paramount name – among which were some updates on some of the company’s major upcoming projects.

It was confirmed that the two-season order of the Beavis And Butt-Head TV show that was originally set to air on Comedy Central has changed, with a new season set to be featured as part of the Paramount+ SVOD (subscription video on demand) service.

More than 200 remastered episodes of the original Beavis And Butt-Head series will also be available through Paramount+.

The synopsis of the forthcoming movie – now officially titled Beavis And Butt-Head Do The Universe – reads: “In perhaps the dumbest space movie ever made, Beavis and Butt-Head are sentenced to Space Camp by a ‘creative’ judge in 1998. Their obsession with a docking simulator (huh huh) leads to a trip on the Space Shuttle, with predictably disastrous results.

“After going through a black hole, they re-emerge in our time, where they look for love, misuse iPhones, and are hunted by the Deep State. Spoiler: They don’t score.”

There are still no firm release dates for either the follow-up to 1996’s Beavis and Butt-Head Do America movie or the new TV series, though the movie is expected this summer.

A preview sketch of the duo also shows them as middle-aged adults rather than their classic teenage appearance – check it out below, alongside Paramount’s other big animation news.
