Who Voices Hank Hill in King of the Hill Season 14?
Mike Judge returns as the voice of Hank Hill in King of the Hill season 14. He’s not just the creator, but he’s stayed the voice for Hank since the first episode, and in this new season—now streaming on Hulu—nobody else takes over. So that familiar, slightly weary Texas drawl that fans know is still all Mike Judge, and it’s a big part of why the character hasn’t lost that classic feel even after so many years away from TV.

Hank Hill New Season
Season 14 finally dropped on Hulu after a 15-year gap, and you can watch all ten episodes at once if you want. The story picks up after a big jump—Hank and Peggy come back to Arlen, Texas, after spending years away. It’s wild how much has changed in town (boba tea, rideshares, all-gender restrooms), but the real shift is how everyone’s adjusting. Hank, still selling propane, feels a bit lost, but he’s not alone. Watching him try to make sense of new stuff is classic King of the Hill—just with a modern twist.

Hank Hill Cast
Most of the old cast showed up again, except for a few who have passed away. Mike Judge (Hank), Kathy Najimy (Peggy), Pamela Adlon (Bobby), Stephen Root (Bill), and Lauren Tom (Connie/Minh) are all back. Johnny Hardwick recorded some Dale lines before he died; Toby Huss picked up for Dale after that. Some characters got new voices—like Tai Leclaire playing Joseph Gribble now, and Ronny Chieng as Kahn. The showrunners kept as much of the original flavor as possible.
Hank Hill Reboot
The reboot got greenlit because old fans still wanted it, and the creators (Judge and Daniels) were up for it. They wanted to keep that same mix: satire about a conservative dad plus thoughtful stuff about family and neighbors. They also added new cast and a bunch of culture-shock moments so it feels like Arlen’s changed, but in a believable way. It’s not all nostalgia—a lot of it’s about how weird it is to come home after so long, and the writing never lets Hank become a caricature. Sometimes the humor’s softer, it’s sharper, but it’s never disrespectful to what came before.
How Old Is Hank Hill
In the original run, his age wasn’t set in stone, but creators pegged him around 41. With the time jump in season 14, showrunner Saladin K. Patterson and co-creator Greg Daniels both confirmed that Hank is now in his mid to late 50s. So he’s visibly older, Bobby’s a grown man, and Hank’s wrestling with all the changes inside himself and out in the world. It gives the show a bit more realism, seeing him age up but still be Hank at his core.
