On December 10, 2017, it was reported that DreamWorks Animation Television was developing a revival of Jay Ward's The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends. Animation was expected to be handled by DHX Studios Vancouver with writing and early production duties taking place in Los Angeles.

On April 12, 2018, it was announced that Amazon Prime Video had given a series order to the production and that the show would premiere on May 11, 2018. Executive producers were reported to include Scott Fellows and Tiffany Ward, daughter of the original series producer Jay Ward. On December 15, 2018, it was reported that the series would return with the second half of season one in January 2019.
