Apple TV+ has announced that it will be offering a new animated series based on MediCom Toy’s collectible BE@RBRICK figures. The upcoming 13-episode series will be produced by DreamWorks Animation and Dentsu Inc., and based on the world-renowned collectible bear-shaped figures.
BE@RBRICK is described as a music-driven comedy about young singer-songwriter Jasmine and her bandmates as they pursue their dreams and inspire others to do the same. But it won’t be easy to do when living in a world where everyone’s role is chosen for them and where the painted-on look you receive when you graduate from high school determines who you’ll be for the rest of your life. Jasmine realizes that in order for her world to change, she and her friends may have to make it happen themselves.
The CG-animated show will be showrun and executive produced by Meghan McCarthy (My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, Centaurworld). Alex Almaguer (TrollsTopia) will serve as supervising producer and Taylor Orci (Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts) will serve as story editor. Athena Hofmann (Curious George) will serve as line producer on the series. The premiere date has not been announced at this time.
BE@RBRICK marks the latest collaboration for Apple TV+ and DreamWorks Animation, joining GLAAD Media Award nominated Pinecone & Pony, based on the book The Princess and the Pony by New York Times bestselling author Kate Beaton; and Doug Unplugs, based on Dan Yaccarino’s Doug Unplugged book series.
Apple TV+’s slate of animated slate includes this year’s Academy Award and BAFTA Award-winning animated short film The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse; star-studded animated adventure film Luck from Apple Original Films and Skydance Animation which premiered this year; and, BAFTA Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated animated film Wolfwalkers.
