*Rick and Morty*'s President Curtis has been sworn in for another term.

Adult Swim announced Friday that it has greenlit *President Curtis*, a *Rick and Morty* spinoff show starring Keith David in the title role. The adult animated series will follow "the Commander-in-Chief and his eccentric staff as they tackle the kind of crises that Rick Sanchez could never be bothered with — from interdimensional diplomacy to paranormal investigations and unexplained phenomena," the network said.

The announcement came on the heels of David making a surprise appearance at the *Rick and Morty* panel at San Diego Comic-Con.

"President Curtis has always been a blast to play," the actor said in a statement. "Getting to explore his world more deeply in this new series is a dream. I can't wait for fans to see what kind of chaos he stirs up when Rick isn't around to steal the spotlight."**

Harmon and Siciliano said in a joint statement, "President Curtis has always been one of our favorite characters to write — he's the only person in the multiverse who can go toe-to-toe with Rick and still hold office. Now we finally get to go on sci-fi missions from Curtis' point of view. And with Keith David leading the charge, it's going to be a wild ride."
