Daniel Spellbound Animated Series Coming To Netflix
✖
Daniel Spellbound, a new CG-animated series about a young boy selling magical artifacts in modern-day New York City. Netflix ordered 20 22-minutes episodes of the new show, born out of a partnership between Netflix, the show's creator as well as director Matt Fernandes (
Dino Ranch,
Remy & Boo,
Kingdom Force), who will serve as an executive producer, Industrial Brothers, and Boat Rocker Studios. Merrill Hagan (
Teen Titans Go,
Danger Mouse) is the show's executive story editor.
"I wanted to create a contemporary fantasy world that reflected urban culture – not just set in a magical world, but where the magic is woven into the fabric of modern society, only hidden in plain sight," Fernandes says in a press release. "I had always been curious about how wizards actually acquired the strange ingredients for their spells. Is there a corner store that has them? And who is the guy that finds all that weird stuff? From that point, Daniel Spellbound was born."
