Asami Mizukawa, Masataka Kubota, Sho Kaneta, Takaaki Enoki, and Jun Kunimura join the series for the new season, which is set 10 years after events of Season 1.
The ‘American Vandal’ duo will write, executive produce, and showrun the series, which will star Skyler Gisondo as the famed Daily Planet photographer; Season 1 will focus on Gorilla Grodd.
In honor of the studio’s 20th anniversary, the multi-title collaboration will feature original art and photography, never-before-seen archival material, and behind-the-scenes secrets across all of the stop-motion studio’s films.
The announcements and first look reveals were made during a talk show which featured Keisuke Itagaki, creator of the ‘BAKI’ manga series, and Paru Itagaki, creator of ‘BEASTARS,’ as part of Netflix’s 10th anniversary in Japan celebration.
From 2,479 submissions, 62 have been chosen for the Short Film (international/Japan/Student/Music) competition, while 8 works were chosen from 172 submissions for the 30 Seconds Animation competition; festival runs November 21 -25.
