The Boondocks reboot was announced as a part of shows and films Sony Pictures Animation will be releasing in 2020 and beyond. According to Katie Baron, one of Sony Pictures Animation’s vice presidents, the reboot will be a re-imagining of the original, focused on "the battles of the Freeman family against the evil local government tyrant Uncle Ruckus, who rules fictional Woodcrest County Maryland, with an iron fist."
