To me it is odd that Justin Roiland is leaving Rick And Morty and I can't figure it out because Justin was the star of Rick And Morty as well as the co-creator of the show and what I think Justin Roiland is doing this for money reasons and since Rick And Morty is one of Adult Swim's popular shows Justin Roiland kept his legal troubles hidden from Cartoon Network in order for Rick And Morty to survive but when the real truth came out Adult Swim decided to let Justin Roiland go because they knew if Justin told them about legal troubles the show would get cancelled. What I think will happen is Justin Roiland will sue Cartoon Network and try to get more money from Adult Swim and Cartoon Network. Because before Rick And Morty Justin Roiland was a successful cartoon voice actor doing voices for cartoons on Disney Channel and when he co-created Rick And Morty with Dan Harmon he became a big superstar in cartoons. As for his replacement actors for Rick and Morty I would choose John Ratzenburger to play Rick and Josh Gad to play Morty because Josh would play a great Morty. But I do hope Justin Roiland gets his problems sorted out soon

Justin Roiland Cleared of Domestic Violence Charges — "Rick and Morty" Boss Calls Entire Process "Shameful"
by Andy Swift
March 22, 2023


"Rick and Morty" co-creator Justin Roiland, who was recently dropped by Adult Swim and Hulu over a series of domestic violence charges, has been cleared of those charges, our sister site Variety reports.

“I have always known that these claims were false — and I never had any doubt that this day would come,” Roiland wrote Wednesday on social media. “I’m thankful that this case has been dismissed but, at the same time, I’m still deeply shaken by the horrible lies that were reported about me during this process.”



He continued, “Most of all, I’m disappointed that so many people were so quick to judge without knowing the facts, based solely on the word of an embittered ex trying to bypass due process and have me ‘canceled.’ That it may have succeeded, even partially, is shameful.

However, now that the legal case has ended, I’m determined to move forward and focus both on my creative projects and restoring my good name.”
