Spotlight: WildBrain

WildBrain is working with filmmaker, screenwriter and actor Kevin Smith on the 2D animated series Green Hornet, based on the classic superhero franchise.

The new version follows the adventures of a reimagined Green Hornet and Kato—now the grown son of the original Green Hornet and the daughter of the original Kato—as they partner to battle crime in Century City.

WildBrain is also showcasing the live-action teen drama The Woods and the animated preschool series Sheila HippoDreamer, with characters inspired by the picture books from David Walliams. “Sheila HippoDreamerbrings the joy and irreverence of Walliams to preschoolers, showing them that it’s OK if things go wrong—if you stay hippo-positive, then anything is hippo-possible,” says Deirdre Brennan, executive VP of content partnerships.

She adds, “We’re committed to serving families around the world with creatively distinct animation and live-action storytelling.”
