Netflix Orders 10 Episodes Of Adult Animated Comedy Series Hoops Starring Jake Johnson

Jake Johnson may have been gracing the big and small screen for years now in shows like New Girl and movies like Jurassic World, and even in shows like Bojack Horseman. But don’t think his stint in animation will end there. Later this year, he’ll be voicing Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, and From the looks of it, he’ll be leading his own adult animated comedy series very soon.

According to Variety, Netflix has ordered 10 episodes of a show called Hoops, which Johnson will lead. Here’s what the outlet had to say about it.

“The series centers on a hot-headed, foul-mouthed high school basketball coach (Johnson) who thinks turning around his God-awful team will take him to the ‘big leagues.’ Netflix has ordered 10 episodes of the half-hour series.”
