By Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia and Hiram Garcia’s production company Seven Bucks Productions will team with Nacelle to co-produce the upcoming “Robo Force” animated series.
First announced back in January, the show is inspired by the action figures of the same name. Set in the year 2089, the latest version of Soraya Aviram’s RoboForce debuted with plans to assist a new intergalactic society on Earth.
Unfortunately, the same day as the announcement, Soraya’s rival, Silas Duke, revealed his new Utopia Aegis 101 line of bots, which made RoboForce immediately obsolete.
RoboForce split up and was forced into menial jobs for 15 years without hope of ever being heroes… Until mysteriously, a rogue code infected the Utopia Aegis 101’s to turn on humanity, and no one else besides Maxx 89 and the rest of RoboForce has a chance to stop them.
Dany Garcia and Dwayne Johnson say in a statement:
“We’re excited for Seven Bucks and Nacelle to partner together once again, especially to bring the iconic story of RoboForce to life. We love that it’s a story about redemption, second chances, and rising to the challenge as told through the eyes of funny, messed up, renegade robots who finally get their chance to shine. This is a great opportunity for Seven Bucks to build on its animation momentum, and we can’t wait for audiences to see what we’ve got in store for them.”
Brian Volk-Weiss will direct and executive produce. Johnson, Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia, Brian Gewirtz, Cisco Henson, Matt Kravitsky, Michael Goodman, Tom Stern and Gavin Hignight are all executive producing.
Composer and musician Matthew Margeson is composing the score whilst Cartoon Conrad (“Teen Titans Go”) is doing the animation. Nacelle and Seven Bucks previously partnered on the docuseries “Behind the Attraction” for the Disney+ service.
