After the conclusion of “The Righteous Gemstones,” it’s apparent that Danny McBride’s upcoming HBO series should carry forward two elements that were initially established in “Vice Principals.” Over the years, all three of Danny McBride’s HBO productions – “Eastbound & Down,” “Vice Principals,” and “The Righteous Gemstones” – have been critically acclaimed and enjoyed by viewers. With such a successful track record on HBO, it’s safe to say that people can’t seem to get enough of McBride’s humor. However, the ending of “The Righteous Gemstones” season 4 has left us wondering what his next project might be and when we can expect to see it on a streaming platform. While we await more details, one thing is certain: whatever McBride comes up with next will undoubtedly bring plenty of laughs!

McBride’s future projects are hard to predict due to their diverse nature. For instance, Eastbound & Down revolved around a fallen baseball player, while Vice Principals focused on self-centered school administrators and The Righteous Gemstones centered around a troubled megachurch family. McBride’s comedic talent seems boundless, yet after producing shows like The Righteous Gemstones and Vice Principals, it appears essential for his next project to incorporate two key elements that he hasn’t explored before. Leaving these elements out might mean missing a valuable opportunity.

Danny McBride’s Next Show Needs To Have Characters For Walton Goggins & Edi Patterson

Goggins & Patterson Are Absolutely Perfect For McBride’s Brand Of Humor

In both Vice Principals and The Righteous Gemstones, produced by McBride, Walton Goggins and Edi Patterson stood out as consistent stars, aside from McBride himself. Goggins portrayed Lee in Vice Principals and Baby Billy in The Righteous Gemstones, while Patterson played Ms. Abbott and Judy respectively. Both Goggins and Patterson are exceptional comedic actors in McBride’s HBO series, and it would be a real loss if they don’t feature in his upcoming fourth series. There aren’t many actors who grasp the nuances of comedic timing, performance, and dedication to a bit like Goggins and Patterson do, and their involvement in his next project would be highly beneficial.

In my opinion, there isn’t another actor in Hollywood who could pull off lines such as “Go outside, nerd!” and “I’m gonna shave my py and move to Malibu” with the same finesse as Goggins and Patterson. Their performances on The Righteous Gemstones and Vice Principals turned these shows into absolute classics, and McBride’s upcoming series will lack the same spark without them.

While Walton Goggins’ stardom and friendship with McBride might make him a strong contender for the next show, Patterson is equally talented and deserves a new role just as much as he does.

What Will Danny McBride’s Next HBO Show Be?

McBride May Be Adapting The Southern Book Club’s Guide To Slaying Vampires

It’s still unclear what Danny McBride’s next HBO show will be, but back in 2024, he mentioned that he was considering a TV adaptation of “The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires.” This project could potentially offer a blend of comedy and horror, as McBride has previously shown an interest in horror genres. However, since there hasn’t been any significant update on this project for nearly a year, it’s uncertain if this is still his planned next TV show. Nevertheless, given McBride’s past work in horror, “The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires” could be a project he’s particularly passionate about.

Despite his recent project wrapping up, McBride expressed a desire to enjoy fatherhood and spend quality time with his two kids. He isn’t in a hurry to create his next HBO show and might explore other possibilities during this period. Moreover, there have been discussions about a live touring revival of The Righteous Gemstones, which could take priority for the upcoming years. McBride has left most queries regarding future plans vague, suggesting he’s keeping his options secret for now.

If Danny McBride doesn’t modify “The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires“, there are still some things we can anticipate from his upcoming show. All of McBride’s HBO productions share common traits, such as their Southern backdrops and biting, absurd wit. It’s likely that McBride’s next production will be set in the South and will feature a group of characters who are comically unprepared for whatever predicament they find themselves in. Whether it’s battling vampires or managing a megachurch, Danny McBride will undoubtedly make it riotously funny.
