Ben 10 Scores Spin-off Series

ATLANTA, January 31:
Cartoon Network is developing a spin off of its popular action-adventure series
Ben 10 that takes the
characters five years into the future.

Ben 10: Alien Force features Ben Tennyson as a 15 year old, using his
Omnitrix to transform into 10 brand new aliens. Joined by his super-powered
cousin Gwen Tennyson and his equally powerful former enemy Kevin Levin, Ben is
on a mission to find his missing Grandpa Max. In order to save his Grandpa, Ben
must defeat the evil DNALIENS. The animated series will premiere with a special
one-hour episode on Cartoon Network in Spring 2008.

Ben 10 was created by Man
of Action (Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau and Steve Seagle), and is
executive-produced by Sam Register (Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi) with supervising producer Glen Murakami (Teen
Titans
) and story editor Dwayne
McDuffie (Justice League). The
show is in production at Cartoon Network Studios in Burbank.
