King of the Hill Revival Sneak Peek, May 30th, Austin
As part of the ATX TV Festival, a sneak peek at season 14 of King of the Hill (coming out on Hulu summer 2025) and more:
However, this isn't just a quick screening that might explain exactly what Hank, Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer have been up to in the intervening years. There will also be a panel discussion including Greg Daniels (co-creator/EP) and Saladin K. Patterson (EP and showrunner), as well as actors Pamela Adlon (the voice of Bobby Hill), Lauren Tom (Minh and Connie Souphanousinphone) and Toby Huss (Kahn Souphanousinphone Sr., and Cotton Hill). And, of course, the night would not be complete without an appearance by the show's other co-creator and executive producer, and the voice of Hank Hill and Boomhauer, Mike Judge.
