MIPTV Spotlight: I.M.P.S.

I.M.P.S. has a variety of The Smurfs programs on offer, including a new 3D series, the classic 2D series and a feature film.

In the 3D, CGI The Smurfs series, now with two seasons, viewers will “discover original stories with more complex characters, snappier dialogue, joyful anarchy and irresistible global appeal,” says Nele de Wilde, head of sales, production and business development, audiovisual and music. The new series also introduces the Smurf girls.

I.M.P.S.’s slate features The Smurfs 2D series from the ’80s as well, which follows the magical adventures of the original blue characters.

The Smurfs and the Magic Flute film sees the Smurfs attempt to save the day when the villain Oilycreep gets his hands on a magic flute and uses it to carry out his evil deeds.

“The Smurfs is known all over the world and continues to please those young and old,” de Wilde notes.
