New Clip From GREMLINS: THE WILD BATCH Sees the Creatures Make Landfall in San Francisco

A new clip from the animated Max series Gremlins: The Wild Batch has been released, which is a prequel to the first season, titled Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai.

In this exclusive clip, the Gremlin formerly known as Noggin (voiced by George Takei) arrives in San Francisco with his crew of ravenous Gremlins. He announces to his team, “San Francisco is our species’ chance for a new beginning. To stop living in the shadow like monsters.”

Taking place one year after the events of season one, Gremlins: The Wild Batch follows Gizmo, Sam, and Elle as they travel from their home in Shanghai to San Francisco, bringing even more magic, mystery and Mogwai mayhem.

“Hot on the trail of a new brood of evil Mogwai, our heroes journey deep into the American West, coming up against new supernatural creatures and picking up a few mysterious characters along the way.

Simu Liu joins the main voice cast in season two alongside returning cast members Ming-Na Wen, James Hong, BD Wong, Izaac Wang, AJ LoCascio, Gabrielle Nevaeh and George Takei. The season also features notable guest stars including John Glover—who starred as eccentric billionaire “Daniel Clamp” in Gremlins 2: The New Batch—plus Michael Paul Chan, Ronny Chieng, Keith David, Will Forte, Kelly Hu and Jimmy O. Yang.

The two-part second season of the animated series will be released on Thursday, October 3, 2024. Check out the trailer below:
