Watch The First Trailer For HBO Max’s Clone High Revival

9 Comments | Chris Miller, clone high, hbo max, Phil Lord | By Peter Paltridge | April 5, 2023 | 2 minutes of reading

I said I’d write a post about every bit of new Clone High information we can get and I meant it. The first trailer for the first new season in twenty years for one of the best shows in existence was released this morning, and you’re all going to sit down and watch it no matter what other urgent matters you have in your lives.

My favorite bit from the leaked season premiere was Cleo trying to “wake herself up” by hitting her own face in increasingly violent ways, and the full gag is in this trailer, but sped up a bit. I think the higher speed throws off the timing. This is one of those “it just keeps going” type of jokes that needs to be long. But nitpicks aside, this is a minute and a half of never-before-seen Clone High material, and even without Ghandi, I am here for it all. (Though I really miss Ghandi, dangit)

Just about all the original actors have returned in their roles, with the exception of Cleo who was originally voiced by a white woman (she is now played by Mitra Jouhari, and there’s no difference). They will be joined by Ayo Edebiri as Harriet Tubman; Vicci Martinez as Frida Khalo; Kelvin Yu as Confucius; Neil Casey as Topher Bus (secretly the clone of Columbus, a fact he’s trying to hide); Jana Schmieding as Sacagawea; Sam Richardson as Wesley; Mo Gaffney as Ms. Grumbles; Al Madrigal as Frederico; Danny Pudi as Dr. Neelankavil; Emily Maya Mills as Ethel Merman; Michael Bolton as Michael Bolton; Mandy Moore as Mandy Moore(?), Ian Ziering as Ian Ziering; Steve Kerr as Steve Kerr; and Jeffrey Muller, Kyle Lau, Dannah Phirman, and Danielle Schneider.

Clone High will return on HBO Max sometime within the next three months.

Sad that Gandhi is not in this revival., I guess they do not want to offend people.

It's unfortunate that Gandhi will not appear in the show, but I understand why. He appears to be the reason the show was canceled in the first place.

I'm really excited! This is one of my favorite shows, so when it was canceled years ago due to complaints from some Indians, I was saddened. I appreciate that the animation is both loyal to the original run and well modernized at the same time. What's my age again is an excellent tune for the trailer! Because this show was terminated years ago, I never imagined this day would arrive.

I never imagined a show that was canceled would return 20 years later with a fresh season.
I'll never understand why some cultures get so outraged about satirical depictions of their historical characters, even if the show had excellent ratings at the time. The show's creator was sued by the Indian Parliament because they were easily offended.

I'm basically giddy with excitement for the return because I still recite Clone High quotes to this day. And, with so many of the original cast members returning, I have a feeling it will be everything we hoped for and more. But let's give one to Ghandi, the clone with the biggest heart of all. He may be gone, but he will never be forgotten. I really don't know why Indians find him offensive when most people love this character.

The early 2000s are officially back, baby! And what better way to commemorate the occasion than with a Clone High revival? I'm sure I'm not the only one who is hyped to its HBO Max debut. People waited 20 years for this! Who wouldn't want to spend time with their favorite teenage clones, after all? Clone High is giving a sitcom a second chance at life, which is unusual. And if the trailer is any indication, it'll be a wild ride.

Okay, let's be honest: Clone High was always ahead of its time. And now, after two decades, it is finally receiving the recognition it deserves. I have a feeling this revival will be a hit with both old and new fans. It's like reliving my awkward adolescent years, but with clones and famous historical figures. I have a feeling this show will be just as funny and ridiculous as I remember it, and I can't wait to see what new shenanigans the gang gets into. Let us hope JFK does not attempt to clone himself again.

Clone High is back, baby! And, based on the trailer, it looks to be as absurd and humorous as ever. We may have lost Gandhi, but we have gained new clones such as Harriet Tubman and Frida Kahlo. With such a talented voice cast, it's sure to be a treat for the ears as well as the funny bone. I just hope I don't get too attached to any of the clones this time, because we all know how that turned out the last time. This should have more seasons than the first.

I have to admit that this revival of Clone High has grabbed my attention and I was a baby when the first Clone High was on air. The concept sounds cool. Who wouldn't enjoy watching young students portrayals of historical people balance high school?
It resembles an odd science experiment gone horribly wrong. It's going to be a thrilling voyage, and don't even get me started on the voice cast, which include actors like Michael Bolton and Ian Ziering. I'll give it a shot when it airs on HBO Max, and who knows, maybe I'll wind up binge-watching it and being seriously obsessed with Clone High.
