VIS Ties Up with Argentine Cartoonist Ricardo Siri Liniers

ViacomCBS International Studios (VIS) has inked a development deal with Argentine cartoonist Ricardo Siri Liniers.

Ricardo Liniers Siri’s work has gone beyond borders and has reached many diverse audiences,” said Federico Cuervo, senior VP of CEO of VIS Americas. “We look forward to bring this incredible story to life and to develop more new and exciting projects together.”

“I’m extremely excited to have the opportunity to collaborate with VIS and watch the story of Flores Salvajes develop into a completely new format with the work of great animators and talented writers,” said Liniers.
