Marvel Announces MOON GIRL AND DEVIL DINOSAUR Animated Series for Disney Channel
Marvel has announced a new animated series coming to the Disney Channel based on their hit comic book series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur.
The series follows the adventures of “13-year-old super-genius Lunella Lafayette and her ten-ton T-Rex, Devil Dinosaur. After Lunella accidentally brings Devil Dinosaur into present-day New York City via a time vortex, the duo works together to protect the city's Lower East Side from danger.”
This is actually a really fun story, and it has potential to be a great series. It’s being executive produced by Laurence Fishburne and Helen Sugland's Cinema Gypsy Productions, Marvel Animation & Family Entertainment, and Steve Loter (Disney's Kim Possible).
Meredith Roberts, senior vice president, Animation Strategy, Disney Channels had this to say in a statement:
"Disney TV Animation is thrilled to collaborate with renowned producers Laurence, Helen and Steve and the talented Marvel Animation team to bring this modern-day roller-skating, gadget-wielding tween superhero and her larger-than-life partner to Disney Channel."
Cort Lane, senior vice president, Marvel Animation & Family Entertainment added:
"Lunella doesn't know she is the smartest person on the planet, but audiences will soon know how very cool Moon Girl is. Her adventures with giant buddy, Devil Dinosaur, are filled with so much wonder and joy, and this historic partnership with Disney Television Animation and Cinema Gypsy Productions proved the right formula to bring them to television."
