ZAG and On Kids & Family sign agreements with multi-territorial broadcasters for 3D CGI animated/live-action hybrid TV series Power Players

Award-winning independent animation studio ZAG has signed multiple deals to bring the first two seasons of its groundbreaking 3D CGI animated/live-action hybrid TV series Power Players (78 x 11’), co-produced with ON kids & family (Mediawan Group), to more kids around the world.

ZAG has signed a non-exclusive global SVOD deal with Netflix, with the series launching on the platform on March 5, 2020; and broadcast deals with Channel 9 in Australia, family/kids’ channel PLUSPLUS in Ukraine, Karusel in Russia, and TELETOON in Canada.

Featuring CGI-hybrid animation, the action-comedy animation series Power Players follows the adventures of Axel, a boy who transforms into a living action figure, and his unlikely team of toy heroes as they embark on the biggest “small” adventures a kid could ever imagine. Together with his team of toys brought to life, the Power Players fight the destructive fun of villainous robot Madcap and his pack of toys gone bad. Power Players was created by Jeremy Zag and developed in collaboration with ON Kids & Family (Mediawan Group) and Man of Action Entertainment.

We are extremely proud of this new original creation that we developed alongside Man of Action, Cartoon Network, FTV, and Playmates Toys. It will be launching in 2020, worldwide, with the best international partners. So, now, Play on!,”commented ZAG’s CEO, Jeremy Zag.

The 2020 Power Players toy collection includes an assortment of highly detailed and articulated 5-inch action figures based on the TV show, as well as 9-inch deluxe action figures that are packed with electronics and sound effects. The line also features a variety of vehicles, allowing kids to send their favorite Power Players on heroic adventures, as well as role play gear which allows kids to transform into Axel, the leader of the Power Players.
