Zodiak Media’s children’s production and distribution arm Zodiak Kids has secured an enhanced acquisition deal with Nickelodeon for its new 52 x 11-minute GGI preschool series Quick Quack, Duck!

The deal will see the series air on Nick Jr. channels globally including Nick Jr. US.

Quick Quack, Duck!, which is based on an award-winning short film called The Happy Duckling and stars a seven-year-old boy and his loyal duck friend in an interactive pop-up world, is produced by Zodiak Kids prodco The Foundation in partnership with creators QQD Limited and Korean animation studio High 1 Entertainment.

Part of the new deal will also see Nick Jr. work with The Foundation and QQD on the creative development of the series, which is currently in pre-production.

Zodiak Kids initially inked the co-pro deal for the series in April this year.
