DHX Media takes on SheZow

April 1, 2011 by Wendy Goldman Getzler

DHX Media has acquired the worldwide TV as well as licensing and merchandising rights (excluding Australia) to the new animated tween comedy SheZow.

The 52 x 11-minute series, which received development and investment funding from Film Victoria, is created by showrunner Obie Scott Wade and produced by Australia’s Moody Street Kids and LA-based Kickstart Productions for Channel 10. It has also presold to ABC Australia.

SheZow follows the exploits of 12-year-old Guy Hammon, a macho dude who finds a ring that transforms him into a superhero. The drawback is that his superhero ring is actually meant for a girl, so Guy must don a big-haired, high-heeled costume while battling his enemies.
