With season two of hit CGI-animated series Mia and me slated to launch in Germany and other territories in May, production of the third season has begun.

Produced by Hahn & m4e Productions GmbH (formerly Lucky Punch GmbH)—a joint venture between m4e AG and Gerhard Hahn—Italy’s Rainbow and Germany’s ZDF Television Network, 26 new episodes featuring 12-year-old Mia’s adventures in the land of Centopia will be delivered by the end of 2016.

The show’s producers say they want to keep momentum going and push forward with long-term development of the brand to ensure it is continuously supported with new content.

The first season (26 x 23 minutes) of the series for kids aged six to 10 has more than 70 broadcasters in over 80 territories. A feature film for the property is also scheduled for theatrical release in 2016.
