Disney Branded Television is loading up its platforms with more Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir content, thanks to a new package deal with ZAG and co-producer Mediawan Kids & Family.
Disney has acquired seasons six and seven of the hit brand’s CG-animated series (52 x 22 minutes), along with three new hour-long specials. All of the content will premiere on Disney Channels worldwide before rolling out on streamer Disney+. The series is produced in collaboration with Brazil’s Globosat, KidsMe (Italy), TF1 (France) and Disney Branded Television.
Featuring a new villain, Miraculous season six is in production now and will launch on Disney’s platforms later this fall. The first of the three specials covered by the deal, Miraculous World: Paris, Tales of Shadybug and Claw Noir, debuted worldwide earlier this week on Disney Channel and Disney+, and the next one is currently in pre-production.
Miraculous got its start in Europe on TF1 in France in 2015, followed by its Pan-European launch on Disney Channels in early 2016. It launched in the US on Nickelodeon in 2015 and is now available on Disney and Netflix in more than 120 countries. The show has also been sold to TVNZ (New Zealand), Télé-Québec (Canada), RTÉ (Ireland) and PlusPlus (Ukraine).
