The Cuphead Show!, Netflix’s long-awaited adaptation of the popular video game is about to hit TV screens.
Like the game, The Cuphead Show! follows the misadventures of the titular character, Cuphead, and his brother, Mugman. The series and game draw inspiration from the early days of animation with plenty of references and easter eggs for the classic animation fans to look forward to.

Series description: Based on the award-winning video game that smashed onto the scene with a gorgeous retro animation style, THE CUPHEAD SHOW! is a character-driven comedy series following the unique misadventures of loveable, impulsive scamp Cuphead and his cautious but easily swayed brother Mugman. As the two scour their surreal homeworld of the Inkwell Isles in search of fun and adventure, they always have each other’s back. Unless there’s only one cookie left, in which case it’s every cup for himself. THE CUPHEAD SHOW! combines nostalgic delights, side-splitting gags, and a healthy dose of the heebie jeebies—especially when a ridiculously weird nemesis, The Devil himself, arrives on the scene to toy with our heroes.
