Adness Secures Mexican Deal for Kamen Rider

LOS ANGELES, August 21: Adness Entertainment has licensed Kamen
Rider Dragon Knight
to
Televisa in Mexico, which will air 40 half-hour episodes of the live-action
children’s series in 2009.

Produced by Adness, Kamen Rider Dragon Knight follows the adventures of teenager Kit Taylor, who
discovers a mysterious deck of Advent Cards that grant him the power to
transform into an ancient armored warrior called a Kamen Rider. He joins a team
of 12 other Riders, who along with their Advent Beasts, battle the warlord
General Xaviax and his army in both the real world and an alternate reality.

The show is based on the original series Kamen Rider
Ryuki
which is produced by Toei Company and
aired in Japan in 2002.

“Boasting an attractive cast, inspired characters, slick
special effects and compelling storylines, Kamen Rider Dragon Knight epitomizes the live-action kids’
genre,” said Carlos Sandoval, the general manager of the film division at
Televisa. “We are excited to make this extraordinary series a part of our
lineup for spring ’09.”
