Video: Ryan’s World the Movie: Titan Universe Adventure’s Kaji Family

Over just a few years, the Ryan’s World franchise has exploded from YouTube to include numerous TV series and now, a theatrically released movie. Ryan’s World the Movie: Titan Universe Adventure, fronted by internet child star Ryan Kaji, combines live action and animation to tell an imaginative superhero story in which Ryan must save his twin sisters from a comic-book world. The film, directed by pocket.watch’s Albie Hecht and co-produced by Ryan’s parents, Shion and Loann Kaji, is set to release on more than 125 screens in Canada and 90 cinemas in the U.K. and Ireland, launching day-and-date with the U.S. premiere on August 16.

In this interview, Ryan, Shion and Loann tell TV Kids Weekly about their experience working on the new theatrical film and how moving into longer-form content has reinforced the wider brand and franchise.
