The tween live-action series Theodosia has been greenlit for a second season by producer Cottonwood Media and German broadcaster ZDF.

Titled Theodosia and the Oasis of Magic, the new season is set against the backdrop of Edwardian London and Egypt. Season two will feature a further 26 half-hours, bringing the series total to 52 episodes.

Theodosia and the Oasis of Magic is co-distributed internationally by Federation Kids & Family and ZDF Studios.

Nicole Keeb, head of international co-productions and acquisitions for children and youth at ZDF, said: “The mixture of adventure and suspense in old Egypt and Victorian London is breathtaking, and season two will dive even deeper into this fascinating universe.”

Arne Lohmann, VP Junior, ZDF Studios, added: “We are delighted that millions of children all over the world have fallen in love with Theodosia and are eagerly waiting for this new season. ”

Co-founders of Cottonwood Media, David Michel, Cécile Lauritano and Zoé Carrera Allaix, said: “Viewers will be glued to their screens as season two ramps things up another notch with unexpected twists and turns, as well as gripping adventures, as our heroine also unearths an unexpected personal connection to Ancient Egypt. Having worked with ZDF on quite a few of our live-action series over the years, it’s an absolute pleasure to see this synergistic partnership continuing to evolve.”
