Toonz Media Group and Nuttery Entertainment have partnered for Super Brakan & Ice Bella: Defenders of Imagination, featuring the book character Hakan Brakan.

The CGI series will be a comedy adventure in which ordinary moments are viewed through the exaggerated lens of a kid. Authors and creators of the character, Sören Olsson and Anders Jacobsson, are on board as story supervisors.

Nuttery will be the showrunner and brand manager of the series, while Toonz will produce and distribute it worldwide.

“Hakan Brakan has a legacy of over 35 years, and this strategic alliance is clearly one of the most important projects for us,” said P Jayakumar, chief executive officer of Toonz Media Group. “I am confident that the popularity of Hakan Brakan and the global appeal for audiences of all ages will make Super Brakan & Ice Bella a huge success.”

Magnus Jansson, chief executive officer of Nuttery Entertainment, added, “Sören and Anders have created such iconic characters, and it is an absolute privilege and delight to help usher this brand extension into the world of animation and gaming. We are beyond excited to introduce these imaginary superheroes to the world, and we could not have hoped for a better partner than Toonz to join us on this adventure.”
