Lord & Miller Reteam With ‘Ted Lasso’ Creator For A Revival Of Their Ridiculous Animated Series

Apr 5, 2023

Back in 2002, producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller teamed up with Bill Lawrence to release a new animated series, “Clone High.” The series ran for one season, was cancelled, and then largely forgotten after. But then a funny thing happened. Lord and Miller would go on to become a filmmaking powerhouse duo and Lawrence would go on to have a lucrative TV producing career with hits like “Scrubs” and most recently, “Ted Lasso.” So, now, the trio triumphantly returns to bring back “Clone High” to HBO Max for another chance.

As seen in the teaser for “Clone High,” not much has changed with the general premise of the series. The show follows a high school comprised of clones of the biggest names in world history. This is all made possible by a shady government agency attempting to see which clones work better than others. But what ends up happening is you have teenaged versions of JFK, Abe Lincoln, Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, and Confuscious (among many others) going around acting like assholes in an R-rated teen comedy. It’s honestly hilarious.

The stacked cast of voice actors includes Will Forte, Nicole Sullivan, Phil Lord, Chris Miller, Christa Miller, Donald Faison, Judah Miller, Ayo Edebiri, Mitra Jouhari, Vicci Martinez, Kelvin Yu, Neil Casey, Jana Schmieding, Sam Richardson, Mo Gaffney, Al Madrigal, Danny Pudi Emily Maya Mills, Michael Bolton, Mandy Moore, Ian Ziering, Steve Kerr, Jeffrey Muller, Kyle Lau, Dannah Phirman, and Danielle Schneider. 
“Clone High” is set to return on HBO Max this spring.
Here’s the synopsis:
This modern refresh of the Phil Lord (“Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” “The Afterparty,” and “21 Jump Street”), Chris Miller, and Bill Lawrence (“Ted Lasso,” “Cougar Town”, “Scrubs”) hit series CLONE HIGH is set at a high school for clones of historical figures. After a high school that was secretly being run as an elaborate military experiment to clone the greatest minds in history was put on ice, the clones have been thawed out 20 years later to resume the experiment with new clone classmates – all while navigating a new set of cultural norms and overly dramatic teen relationships.
