The new Rainbow Group original series Pinocchio and Friends<\/em> is set to make its debut on TV by the end of 2021.<\/p>\n

The CGI-animated show, inspired by Carlo Collodi\u2019s original The Adventures of Pinocchio<\/em>, reimagines the story as a contemporary, irreverent and charming children\u2019s series. It is created entirely from the point of view of children, for children and focuses on the bridge target market. Rainbow is currently previewing the pilot.<\/p>\n

This new take on Pinocchio<\/em> features the fairytale atmosphere of the old stories and traditional Italian locales and a story of magic events that clash with modern life. It will follow Pinocchio, an enchanted puppet living in today\u2019s world, growing up alongside Grandpa Geppetto, the pirate doll Freeda and the Talking Cricket as he dreams of one day becoming a real boy.<\/p>\n

Iginio Straffi, founder and CEO of Rainbow Group, said: \u201cPinocchio is the best-loved Italian character ever created in our fairy tale literature, and the Rainbow Group\u2019s roots are here in Italy. Throughout my career, I have been waiting for the right moment to bring this concept to light with the attention to detail and quality it deserves. Now that I have my chance, I won\u2019t hesitate to reveal a contemporary Pinocchio who speaks to children in a lighthearted, educational show that empowers their dreams. Families will love this compelling series and kids will find their new TV hero in Pinocchio.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
