Being let go from your job is the worst. It throws your entire world into disarray and leaves you wondering what is next? Well, imagine how tough it is when you are 150 million miles from Earth? That’s the setup for HBO Max’s new adult-animated series Fired On Mars.

Fired On Mars stars Luke Wilson as a graphic designer enjoying his new life working on Mars–until he is fired. Then begins his adventure of being unemployed on the red planet. Looking like a funny and surreal take on corporate culture, the series features the voices of Stephen Root, Leslie David Baker, Cory Loykasek, and Cedric Yarbrough.

Fired On Mars premieres on April 20th on HBO Max.
