Toonz Entertainment and Zoonicorn LLC Head Into Licensing Expo With New Global Media Deals for Zoonicorn
Zoonicorn, the multi-platform animated preschool brand from Zoonicorn LLC and Toonz Entertainment, continues to expand its worldwide footprint as it heads into Licensing Expo 2023 with new platforms in territories across the globe.
Now in production at Toonz for its second season of original episodes, Zoonicorn has been picked up for Spanish language viewers by Latin American children’s YouTube channel El Reino Infantil, Mexican national network TV Azteca and Latin American channels Clan International and La TeleTuya. New streaming services include China’s Huashi TV, Hong Kong’s HK TV, Malaysia’s Astro, Czech Republic’s IFC Media and US based streaming services Pluto TV and Happy Kids TV.

The Zoonicorns inhabit the dreams of young animals, taking them on amazing adventures to help learn important social-emotional skills. When the dream is over, the young animal wakes up feeling self-confident and with the decision-making skills necessary to overcome whatever challenges they are facing. The Zoonicorns cleverly guide each dreamer through a whirlwind of fun-loving adventures as their core message of optimism and resilience communicates self-belief and positivity. At the heart of every solution is the one important truth—the power to solve any problem is inside of them.
Multi Emmy Award-winner Mark Zaslove (Winnie the Pooh, Lazytown, Bob The Builder) serves as show runner and lead writer/editor for the series. The music for the show has been composed by Emmy Award winning composer Rich Dickerson.
