Japan’s fantasy animated series Deltora Quest has been picked up by Cartoon Network in Australia and New Zealand.
Based on the international top-selling fantasy-adventure book series of the same name, the 52 x half-hour series will begin airing in April 2010 to coincide with Scholastic’s re-launch of the book series in the territory.
Cartoon Network will also handle the free-to-air and broadband distribution, as well as DVD and merchandising rights in these territories.
