'King of the Hill' Revival Explores Hank, Bobby, and Dale in Turbulent America

As of August 1st, 2025, a revival of the beloved animated series 'King of the Hill' is in development, set to explore the lives of Hank, Bobby, and Dale in the current turbulent state of America. This news comes as the entertainment industry reflects on the lasting impact of the late Chadwick Boseman's final credited work, which was in the Marvel animated series 'What If?'.

Boseman's unexpected passing in 2020 left a significant void in Marvel's plans, as the actor's portrayal of T'Challa/Black Panther had become a cornerstone of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The article speculates on various 'what-if' scenarios, such as how Boseman's continued involvement could have shaped the direction of the MCU in the years since.

Amidst these reflections, Disney+ has released a new animated series titled 'Eyes of Wakanda', which delves into the history of the Wakandan secret police, the Hatut Zeraze, also known as the War Dogs. Produced by Ryan Coogler and directed by Todd Harris, the four-episode anthology series explores different time periods and characters, showcasing Wakanda's advanced technology and the efforts to protect its vibranium resources.

While a Black Panther appears in one episode, the focus remains on the Wakandan agents tasked with retrieving scattered vibranium artifacts around the world. The series offers a deeper look into the rich culture and history of Wakanda, hinting at the country's potential to have had a greater impact on the world if its leaders had not insisted on keeping it hidden for so long.
