Max’s comic book-inspired Harley Quinn will return for season five. The streaming service announced they’ve renewed the adult animated comedy but haven’t set an expected premiere date.
Harley Quinn season one premiered in November 2019 followed by season two on April 3, 2020 and season three on July 28, 2022. The 10-episode fourth season debuted on July 27, 2023 and wrapped up on September 14th.
Commenting on the renewal, executive producers and creators Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, and showrunner Dean Lorey said, “We’re thrilled that the news of Harley and Ivy’s continuing misadventures is finally out and we can stop telling people in secret. We must have handed out at least three thousand NDAs by now. It was a big waste of paper.”
The animated series is produced by Delicious Non-Sequitur Productions, Lorey Stories, and Yes, Norman Productions in association with Warner Bros. Animation. Additional executive producers include Kaley Cuoco, Sam Register, and Katie Rich.
“The talented Harley Quinn team has once again succeeded in delivering a season that builds on everything that has come before while still feeling fresh and inventive. They continue to provide hilarious, heartwarming, and deranged stories with our lovable group of DC misfits, and we couldn’t be more excited for the fans to see what they’ve accomplished in season 5,” said Suzanna Makkos, Executive Vice President, Original Comedy and Adult Animation, Max and Adult Swim.
Kaley Cuoco voices the titular character and will return for season five. Season four voice cast members included Lake Bell, Alan Tudyk, Christopher Meloni, Ron Funches, JB Smoove, and Tony Hale.
“Harley Quinn has raised the comedic crowbar with every new season. We’re excited to continue this partnership with Max and take our biggest swing yet for season 5,” stated Peter Girardi, Executive Vice President, Alternative Programming, Warner Bros. Animation.
Prior to announcing season five of Harley Quinn, Max announced the new spinoff Kite Man: Hell Yeah! which is targeting a 2024 premiere. The spinoff focuses on Kite Man and Golden Glider as they “take their relationship to the next level by opening a bar in the shadow of Lex Luthor’s Legion of Doom.”

This biting and uproarious adult animated comedy follows Harley Quinn as she strikes out on her own following her breakup with The Joker. With help from Poison Ivy and a ragtag crew of DC castoffs, Harley attempts to work her way into the Legion of Doom, before an identity crisis sends her on a larger quest to find her true place in Gotham City.
With appearances by DC’s most notorious characters and featuring a notable voice cast, Harley Quinn showcases the titular antiheroine’s killer journey from girlfriend to leading lady.
