Adult Swim Rick and Morty: Hire Sean Kelly (@SeanKellySays) to Replace Justin Roiland


Adult Swim Rick and Morty: Hire Sean Kelly (@SeanKellySays) to Replace Justin Roiland
The Issue

With so many Rick and Morty fans relieved that Justin Roiland is no longer with the show on Adult Swim (Cartoon Network/Viacom), many of us know the obvious choice of Sean Kelly (Sean Dorrough @SeanKellySays formerly @MortySays on TikTok and Instagram) to replace Roiland.
As a fan of Kelly’s I know he has been trying to distance himself from Roiland, with good reason. While he does have a breadth of talent mimicking many other famous characters, he is ready and willing to replace the titular characters of our beloved show.

He has been mentioned in articles as a replacement already:
“Rick and Morty could go the same route as Squidbillies, though there are notable imitators online who sound very similar to Roiland's portrayal. TikTok's Sean Kelly has built a large following solely because of his imitation of Morty; could he be someone that Adult Swim might consider for the role when the time comes?”
“Commenters have taken the opportunity to state something that Kelly is probably very aware of: He’d be a great Morty replacement. Finally, it looks like at least Adult Swim has taken notice. The channel commented on the above video and said “He understood the assignment.”
Kelly’s response? “u gotta be jokin me right now….” Well, looks like he has a pretty good chance of making this thing happen.”

"I'm very familiar with the characters, their mannerisms, and their personalities," he told Insider, later adding: "I am confident that I could do the role." -Sean
So it seems like there’s already a good chance, but let’s show Sean our support!
