Mondo TV Iberoam\u00e9rica Group has partnered with the Spanish public broadcaster RTVE for the new animated series Annie & Carola<\/em>.<\/p>\n Clan, RTVE’s children’s channel, has included Annie & Carola<\/em> among the six projects in its 2020 call for animation. The series centers on Carola, a nerd with no social skills who is also a genius who builds a robot friend that she thinks will share her love of science and keep her safe from the world of teenagers. Annie, the robot who was meant to be a clone of Carola, turns out to be an uninhibited friend who will get Carola to face her fears. Annie & Carola<\/em> is expected to launch in the second half of 2022.<\/p>\n The entire preproduction phase of the series will be overseen by Mondo TV Producciones Canarias, which will play a key role in the development of the property. Annie & Carola<\/em> is written by Txema Ocio and directed by Myriam Ballesteros, owner of MB Producciones. Mondo TV Iberoam\u00e9rica signed a strategic agreement with MB Producciones to take the majority of the show\u2019s IP and oversee the show\u2019s international distribution. The details of RTVE’s participation will be announced at a later stage.<\/p>\n Maria Bonaria Fois, CEO of Mondo TV Iberoam\u00e9rica Group, said: \u201cThe selection of Annie & Carola<\/em> by Clan TV is an important vote of confidence from the channel\u2014and will be a major boost for the development of this funny, clever and highly original series. It is a privilege for all of us at Mondo TV Iberoam\u00e9rica to be part of this very special project together with Myriam Ballesteros.\u201d<\/p>\n Myriam Ballesteros, CEO of MB Producciones, added: “It is a true honor that Annie & Carola<\/em> has been selected as one of the projects supported by RTVE. It\u2019s a comedy with all the crazy situations, visual gags and hilarious dialogue that make great animation, but it\u2019s much more than that. Like all great comedies, Annie & Carola<\/em> has emotional truth at its core and has real substance to go with the whacky humor. It\u2019s a combination that we believe reflects the concerns of our young audience and will have enormous appeal for them.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mondo TV Iberoam\u00e9rica Group has partnered with the Spanish public broadcaster RTVE for the new animated series Annie & Carola.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":18925,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[5533,5592,1589],"class_list":["post-18924","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-annie-carola","tag-mondo-tv-iberoamerica-group","tag-rtve","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
