Netflix and The Simpsons co-creator Matt Groening debut a first look at the characters from the upcoming animated comedy Disenchantment.

Netflix has released art from Disenchantment, the upcoming animated comedy from Matt Groening, co-creator of The Simpsons and Futurama.

Arriving Aug. 17 to the streaming service, the series centers on the dysfunctional Princess Bean, who's accompanied by the demon Luci and the dwarf Elfo through a magical realm known as Dreamland

With Disenchantment, Groening is targeting a more adult audience akin to Big Mouth and BoJack Horseman. Led by Abbi Jacobson as Bean, Eric Andre as Luci and Nat Faxon as Elfo, Disenchantment will also serve as something of a Futurama reunion by bringing on board voice actors John DiMaggio, Billy West, Maurice LaMarche and Tress MacNeille in supporting roles. David Herman, Matt Berry, Jeny Batten, Rich Fulcher, Noel Fielding and Lucy Montgomery also make up the cast.

With The Simpsons having just wrapped its 29th season, Groening is ready to let his fans know a little more about Disenchantment. Just as Futurama poked fun at the world of sci-fi, Disenchantment promises to go full Adventure Time and tackle some classic fantasy tropes.

Disenchantment has been ordered for two seasons of 10 episodes.
