\nAcademy Award Nominee Joel Cohen Joins Executive Producer and NBA Legend Shaquille O’Neal on The Animated Comedy-Adventure Series Premiering in Fall 2021 on Kartoon Channel!
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., March 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Genius Brands International, Inc<\/strong>. (\u201cGenius Brands\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) (Nasdaq: GNUS) announced today an all-star production team to drive the development and production of the all-new animated comedy, action-adventure series for kids, Shaq\u2019s Garage<\/em><\/strong>, starring Shaquille O’Neal<\/strong>, led by Academy Award nominated writer Joel Cohen<\/strong> (Toy Story, Garfield: The Movie, Evan Almighty, Cheaper by the Dozen, Daddy Day Camp<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Currently in pre-production, Shaq\u2019s Garage<\/em> will premiere on Kartoon Channel!<\/strong> in the U.S. in fall 2021, featuring 26 x 30\u2019 animated episodes and starring O\u2019Neal along with a fleet of some of the most amazing vehicles in the world. Cohen serves as head writer and executive producer for the series, with multi-Emmy Award-winning Michael Maliani<\/strong> (Where on Earth Is Carmen Sandiego<\/em>?, The New Adventures of Madeline, Sherlock Holmes in the 22<\/em>nd<\/em><\/sup> Century, Our Friend, Martin)<\/em> directing and producing. The series will be executive produced by O\u2019Neal, Cohen, Genius Brands, PRP, and ABG Entertainment.<\/p>\n

\n Andy Heyward<\/strong>, Chairman & CEO of Genius Brands, stated: \u201cAt Genius Brands, we continue to believe that the only way to create mega hits, and ultimately build enduring mega businesses, is by hiring the most talented writers and producers that Hollywood has to offer. In Joel Cohen, the Academy Award-nominated co-writer of Pixar\u2019s Toy Story<\/em>, we knew we had found our talent. All of the great vehicles that were in Shaquille O\u2019 Neal\u2019s imagination, suddenly came to life as Joel told us who each one was, and precisely why we would care about them. Toy Story<\/em> has become not only one of the single most successful movie franchises in history, but also a multi-billion dollar toy and licensing business. These phenomenon can only come forth from the absolute best that Hollywood has to offer, who can create characters that kids of all ages can relate to and become engaged with. When we pair the heart and humor from Joel, along with the directing brilliance of Mike Maliani, we are confident that Shaq\u2019s Garage<\/em> is going to become a major hit as well as a major entertainment franchise!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI always loved Shaq, both the man and the athlete\u2014happy to be playing for his team,\u201d commented Joel Cohen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n Shaq\u2019s Garage<\/em> will depict the secret adventures of O\u2019Neal\u2019s extraordinary collection of animated cars, trucks, and automobiles. All the vehicles in \u201cShaq\u2019s Garage\u201d have unique attributes, intellects, and skills ranging from musical stylings, Shaq Fu, and their mastery of the ultra-secret language of Shaqanese and the Shaqtionary. Whether in Sheijing on a secret mission or visiting an ancient shrine in the lost city of Shaqmandu, each story will be as special as the vehicles and Shaquille himself.<\/p>\n
