Watch The Insane Trailer For Adult Swim's New Series Ballmastrz: 9009

It'll apparently take balls to rid the world of war.

Deadline reports that Adult Swim has ordered a new series called Ballmastrz: 9009, and the first trailer reveals a high-concept plot and some wild animation. 

Created by Christy Karacas (Suerjail) and produced by Titmouse, Ballmastrz: 9009 is set thousands of years in the future when nobody cares about traditional sports anymore. Instead, they play The Game, a massive and violent spectacle that has taken away the need for war. Teams of Ballmastrz face off in giant battle arenas the size of cities using their own artificially intelligent combat weapons (the balls) to survive obstacles and challenges that test their limits. 

The show centers on Gaz Digzy (voiced by Natasha Lyonne), a former superstar and infamous party girl who is demoted to the worst team in The Game after a series of destructive hijinks. The only way she can get back to the top is to lead the "ultimate losers" to unlikely victory.

The voice cast also includes Dana SnyderDave Willis, Jessica DiCicco, Eric Bauza, Christopher McCulloch, and Karacas. Special guests include Norman Reedus (The Walking Dead), Stephanie Sheh (DC Super Hero Girls), and Mike O'Gorman (Vice Principals).

Adult Swim originally ordered a pilot back in 2015, but Ballmastrz: 9009 will finally hit the air at midnight on April 8, with back-to-back new episodes to follow on Sundays.
