Apple TV+ Sneak Peeks ‘BE@RBRICK’ Animated Series

Viewers can rock out with Jasmine Finch and her bandmates in the new CG animated series BE@RBRICK, premiering March 21 on Apple TV+. Ahead of the series debut, the platform offers a sneak-peek clip offering a glimpse at this new music-driven animated world.

Inspired by the collectible toys from Medicom Toy, the 13-episode series is produced by DreamWorks Animation and Dentsu Inc., and follows the band as they chase their dreams and embrace who they are meant to be. The adventure is set to upbeat, original songs by four-time Grammy-winning producer Timbaland.

Synopsis: BE@RBRICK follows Jasmine Finch 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 will have to make it happen themselves.

The series is developed by Daytime Emmy Award nominee Meghan McCarthy (My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, Centaurworld), who also serves as showrunner, executive producer and writer. Alex Almaguer (TrollsTopia) is the supervising producer, with Taylor Orci (Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts) as story editor and Athena Hofmann (Amateur) as line producer.

The voice cast features Brianna Bryan as Jasmine, Skyla I’Lece as Holly, Isaiah Crews as Nick, Alison Jaye as Ada and Noah Bentley as Klaus. Voice guest stars include Tim Meadows as Mr. Hitmaker, Katy Mixon as Ms. Goldenshorts, Ego Nwodim as Charlene, Emily Hampshire as Janet and Debra Jo Rupp as Miss Milton.

In addition to providing original songs, Timbaland serves as executive music producer and guest voice stars as “BRBX Media DJ.” The series original score is by Jina Hyojin An (XO, Kitty) and Shirley Song (Exploding Kittens).

BE@RBRICK marks the latest collaboration for Apple TV+ and DreamWorks Animation, joining Jim Cooper and Jeff Dixon’s Emmy-nominated spooky adventure series Curses!, executive produced by John Krasinski; 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.
