Strika Entertainment and Fatkat Ink Deal On Animated Series

CAPE TOWN/MIRAMICHI CITY, July 25: Strika Entertainment of
Cape Town, South Africa, has signed a deal with the Canadian animation outfit
Fatkat to produce a soccer-themed animated series based on a popular comic
book.

Supa Strikas is
centered on Shakes, the team’s young striker who has risen through the ranks to
prove his talent. Now in the same legendary position his late father held,
Shakes wrestles with his father’s legacy while leading the team in the Super
League. Supa Strikas already has
a dedicated fan-base derived from the Strika Entertainment comic book of the
same name, which reaches over 10 million readers across 14 countries. The first
22-minute episode of the 13-episode series will be made available for
screenings at MIPCOM and MIPCOM Junior.

“It’s very rewarding to finally see the Supa Strikas
characters come alive on the small screen,” said Oliver Power, executive
producer of the show. “We look forward to a very successful alliance with
Fatkat.”
