Magic Frame Animation and Creation Entertainment Media today announce their collaboration for the kids’ animated feature film, Secret Magic Control Agency II: Mission Sleeping Beauty, the sequel to the popular Netflix film from 2021. The studio partners will present the film, which is currently in production, at the Cannes Marché du Film this month.
“This film continues the story of the much-loved characters from the first Netflix film, but with an entirely new mission!” says Lidia Chirita, Head of Sales and Co-Productions at Magic Frame Animation. “We know that families around the world will love the comedy, adventure and amazing visuals that this film has to offer. We’re very excited to be working with our partners at Creation Entertainment Media and to be showcasing the project for the first time at Marché du Film.”
In this sequel to Secret Magic Control Agency, which topped the global viewership charts as one of Netflix’s most watched films, agents Hansel and Gretel return to undergo their most important mission yet. In a race against the clock, the agents must work together to save a princess from her enchanted slumber. But when they cross paths with a sorcery-wielding Prince who is after the same prize, Gretel finds herself battling the most powerful force she’s ever experienced… true love.
Returning for the second film is award-winning actress Sylvana Joyce and Nicholas Corda (Pokémon, Avatar: The Last Airbender). Alex Tsitsil’in will direct, with the film’s music composed by Sefi Carmel.
The producers are eager to introduce their endearing family comedy-adventure which brings the beloved characters of classic fairy tales Hansel and Gretel and Sleeping Beauty to the screen. Following the success of the first outing, fans can look forward to an engaging story told with vibrant, magic-infused animation.
“We’re incredibly excited about this project, especially as there has been such a great response to the first Secret Magic Control Agency film,” says Carmel, CEO of Creation Entertainment Media. “Audiences can expect to see some returning characters, and some new ones, in what will be an exciting adventure for all the family to enjoy. We look forward to presenting the film at Cannes!”
