Netflix Enters Into Overall Deal With Kuku Studios & Greenlights Animated Film
Netflix has entered into a multi-year overall agreement with Kuku Studios, under which its key members - Alex Woo, Stanley Moore, Tim Hahn, and Erik Benson - will exclusively produce animated films and series for Netflix members worldwide. Their credits include Ratatouille, Wall-e, Toy Story 3, Monster's University, and Finding Dory, among others. Kuku Studios' first project for Netflix is the upcoming Go! Go! Cory Carson, a preschool series based on the hit toy line Go! Go! Smart Wheels from VTech Electronics, which launches on Netflix early in 2020. Their first (yet untitled) animated feature film with Netflix, which explores the power and magic of dreams, has been greenlit and will be produced out of Kuku's Berkeley, CA-based studio.
