There's a GREMLINS Animated Series in Development and It Sounds Cool!
I’ve got some interesting news for all of the Gremlins fans out there! According to Variety, WB is developing a Gremlins animated series that will air on WarnerMedia’s upcoming streaming service. I think you’re going to like the direction that they are taking the series as well.
According to the report, the series will be a “period piece that would follow Mr. Wing, the Chinese grandfather played in the films by Keye Luke, as a young man as he goes on adventures with the friendly Mogwai Gizmo.”
I would love to see a series that follows the adventures of Mr. Wing and his Mogwai! There are a lot of incredibly fun stories that could be told there. The series will be written and executive produced by Tze Chun, who is known for writing and directing films like Bryan Cranston’s 2013’s Cold Comes the Night and 2009’s Children of Invention. He’s also worked on shows like Gotham and Once Upon a Time.
The series will be produced by Warner Bros. Television and Amblin Television. Both Warner Bros. and Amblin produced the films on which the show will be based. The streaming service will be launched in 2020 and I’m looking forward to seeing what comes of this Gremlins animated series.
