Dan Stevens Replaces Justin Roiland In ‘Solar Opposites’ Hulu Series
Dan Stevens is voicing Korvo in the upcoming fourth season of Hulu’s adult animated series Solar Opposites. He is taking on the role from series creator Justin Roiland, who exited in January when Hulu Originals and Solar Opposites studio 20th Television Animation severed ties with the writer-producer-performer after he had been accused of domestic violence.
Korvo is a grouchy alien who always wears ceremonial robes and professes to hate Earth. He desperately wants to fix their spaceship so he can escape to a new planet.
Stevens joins Thomas Middleditch, Sean Giambrone and Mary Mack in the cast.

Season 4 of Solar Opposites will premiere on August 14 with 11 episodes followed by a Valentine’s Day special in 2024. (Watch a first-look video below.) The series already has been renewed through Season 5.
Solar Opposites centers on a team of four aliens who are evenly split on whether Earth is awful or awesome. Korvo (Stevens) and Yumyulack (Giambrone) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty while Terry (Middleditch) and Jesse (Mack) love TV, junk food and fun stuff. The series is executive produced by Mike McMahan and Josh Bycel and produced by 20th Television Animation.
In Season 4, the show pack ups the sci-fi and gets normal… for a second. Then it’s back to classic Solar chaos, mayhem in the Wall, and some all new Silvercops adventures.
