Today, Netflix revealed the official trailer, teaser art, and images for Exploding Kittens, which will premiere in July 2024. The new animated series is based on the best-selling card game.
Earth sucks, so God (Tom Ellis) gets fired and sent to Earth to reconnect with humanity. The catch? He’s trapped in the body of a chubby house cat.
As part of his rehabilitation, Godcat moves in with a dysfunctional family and tries to solve their problems, but he ends up spending a lot of time chasing laser pointers. To top it off, Godcat’s next-door neighbor, who is also a cat, turns out to be none other than his nemesis, the Antichrist.
The result is the ultimate fight between good and evil…except Godcat (Ellis) is distracted by a pigeon he saw in the yard, and Devilcat (Sasheer Zamata) is busy napping on someone’s laptop.

Thanks to Netflix‘s upcoming animated series Exploding Kittens, Tom Ellis is trading his horns for a halo by becoming God after playing Lucifer Morningstar in the fan-favorite supernatural drama Lucifer. Netflix parted the heavens on Thursday to reveal an Exploding Kittens trailer, teasing the animated series based on the popular card game Matthew Inman, Elan Lee, and Shane Small created. Netflix’s Exploding Kittens is an adult animated series starring Tom Ellis and Sasheer Zamata as two rotund housecats on opposite ends of a holy war.
In Netflix’s Exploding Kittens trailer, God is transformed into Godcat (Tom Ellis) and cast down to Earth to live with a dysfunctional family while reconnecting with his humanity. Meanwhile, Beelzebub lives next door in the form of a tubby void cat prone to naps in sunbeams and zoomies at ungodly hours.

He’s not just a cat, he’s God.
In Exploding Kittens, the eternal conflict between Good and Evil gets a bit hiss-terical when both God and the Devil are sent to Earth in the bodies of chunky house cats. Starring Tom Ellis (Lucifer)as Godcat and Sasheer Zamata (Home Economics) as Devilcat, the adult animated comedy series comes from showrunners Shane Kosakowski and Matthew Inman, founder of the webcomic The Oatmeal as well as the co-creator of the Exploding Kittens card game, which is now also available as a mobile game. Inman is also an executive producer on the show, along with Bandera Entertainment (formed by comedy kings Mike Judge and Greg Daniels) and Chernin Entertainment.
“I always had ambitions of turning The Oatmeal into some kind of TV series, because it's a webcomic with actual stories,” Inman tells Tudum. “I never thought it would come...

The best kind of card game involves intentionally sabotaging other players to transform friends into enemies for a small period of time. In the game of "Exploding Kittens" — created by Elan Lee and Matthew Inman, the brains behind the popular comics site The Oatmeal, and Shane Small — players are able to play as many action cards as they want before drawing a card and praying that they didn't pull the Exploding Kitten card to kick them out of the game. Action cards allow players to do things like shuffle the "draw from" deck, take a peek at the...
