Studio 100 Film has launched the international trailer for the Maya the Bee—The Golden Orb movie on its YouTube channel.

Tracy Lenon, producer at Studio B Animation, said: “The Australian/German co-production of Maya the Bee—The Golden Orb has provided yet another fantastic opportunity to tell a story with our much-loved, empathetic Maya who bravely accepts the challenge to help others despite being faced with some tricky obstacles. Maya’s BFF, Willie, truly shines in this adventure to offer an uplifting, funny tale that will have children and their families laughing out loud. The teams in Australia and Germany have worked incredibly hard to ensure that the loyal Maya audience will be inspired by the highest quality animation of which they have come to expect.”

Thorsten Wegener, producer and head of operations at Studio 100 Media, said: “Maya the Bee’s adventures have delighted audiences around the world and this new film will bring old and new characters together in a fun-filled, comedic story which will appeal to younger and older audiences. Recent challenges to working life have led to our Australian and German teams staying at home to work remotely while finishing the film. It’s quite extraordinary that all this could be achieved with only a small delay on delivery.”
