NYCC 2025: Brendan Fraser, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Annie Murphy, and Elizabeth Hurley Lead Tubi’s “Breaking Bear”

Stars Brendan Fraser, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Annie Murphy, and Elizabeth Hurley join the New York Comic Con panel and give audiences a first look at the outrageous new Tubi original animated comedy series


BREAKING BEAR will be available to stream exclusively on Tubi March 2026

Tubi took center stage on Saturday October 11th,  at New York Comic Con with an exclusive panel for its upcoming adult animated comedy series BREAKING BEAR — a wildly original new series that hilariously parodies mobster dramas, blending the world of Yogi Bear with The Sopranos in the most comically way imaginable. BREAKING BEAR will be available to stream exclusively on Tubi March 2026. 

The New York Comic Con panel featured series stars Brendan Fraser, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Annie Murphy, and Elizabeth Hurley. Fans in the packed room were treated to exclusive first-look clips of BREAKING BEAR, including the hilarious opening sequence. In a surprise-and-delight moment, the cast also teased the upcoming BREAKING BEAR merchandise collection.

The cast teased the project by saying: 
  • “I certainly couldn’t do this role on camera” - Sarah Michelle Gellar
  • “I don’t think my mother or my 23 year old son can watch this” - Elizabeth Hurley
  • “We need this one more than ever right now” - Brendan Fraser
  • “There will be much pearl clutching and jaw dropping” - Annie Murphy
BREAKING BEAR has an all-star cast of series regulars with OscarⓇ Winner Brendan Fraser (The Whale), EMMYⓇ Winner Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), EMMYⓇ Winner Annie Murphy (Schitt’s Creek), with Elizabeth Hurley (The Royals) and TonyⓇ Nominee Josh Gad (Frozen) voicing the characters. 

Fraser plays “Jer” – The oldest of the bear siblings, Jer fancies himself the brains of the operation.  Unfortunately, he’s not only wrong – he’s lazy, clueless and usually the one getting everyone into hot water.  If there is a wrong move to make, Jer has already made it.

Gellar plays “Blair” – The middle sister and actual brains of the family.  Constantly overlooked, Blair’s the one who ends up cleaning up her brothers’ messes and keeping the family alive – whether they notice or not.

Murphy plays  “Tawny” – A human, she’s a gorgeous local news anchor whose number one goal is getting ahead in her field to become the next big national newscaster.

Hurley plays  “Wolf Queen” – the fierce and unyielding guardian of the forest. She is locked in a bitter rivalry with the Bears, whose growing presence and destructive ways threaten the land she is sworn to protect, by any means necessary.

Gad plays “Alistair” –  The baby brother of the family, Alistar swings wildly from adorably anxious to full-on unhinged with zero warning.   Push him the wrong way, and this teddy bear turns terrifying.

BREAKING BEAR is Created by Julien Nitzberg (The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia) and produced by Evoke Entertainment (Creepshow, Twelve Forever, and Day of the Dead) and Tom DeLonge’s To The Stars Media (Monsters of California, Unidentified). Executive produced by Tom DeLonge (“Poet Anderson: The Dream Walker”), Stan Spry (Creepshow, Day of the Dead), and Jeff Holland (Creepshow, Day of the Dead). Brendan Frasher, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Josh Gad are also executive producers with Julien Nitzberg, who also serves as showrunner. 

BREAKING BEAR is a fur-flying, law-breaking, forest-saving rampage following a dysfunctional family of bears who go full criminal to stop frackers, mobsters, and a psychotic wolf pack from destroying their home. As they spiral deeper into the criminal abyss, they face off against biker gangs, an egomaniacal news anchor, and their own spectacular talent for self-sabotage.
