Marking the first instalment since the original two-season-run concluded in 2017, LoliRock season 3 brings the beloved musical franchise back to screens with a contemporary reboot that puts its signature sound front and centre. The 26 x 22’ 2D-rendered CGI animated series will deliver catchy pop anthems and high-energy performances, blending magical storytelling with a global musical journey for a new generation of fans.
In the upcoming series, after defeating Gramorr, the princesses are back on Earth where LoliRock is about to go on a world tour, but their tranquillity is short-lived. Determined to avenge the death of her brother Mephisto, Praxina has become more powerful than ever and has set her sights on Earth. LoliRock must now protect the planet as they travel the globe on tour.
Bastien Fauré, Production Supervisor, Zodiak Kids & Family France, comments: “Together with Benoît Di Sabatino, I am delighted to bring LoliRock back into the spotlight. Music has always been at the soul of this iconic IP and of the unique connection it shares with its audience. We are approaching the new songs with the same creative ambition as the series universe itself, to bring hits that will extend the adventure beyond the screen. It was the obvious choice to reunite with Jean-Louis Vandestoc for this exciting challenge, alongside Nandish Domlur and our long-standing partner France Télévisions. We cannot wait for Lolirockers and new audiences alike to discover this new chapter, where music, adventure and magic reach new heights.”
Jean-Louis Vandestoc, LoliRock creator and director, adds: “It is with great excitement and pride that return to LoliRock for a third season! Taking on this adventure and reconnecting with this universe and its vibrant community is a true joy. The new season gives us the opportunity to push the boundaries even further, taking our heroines to bold new visual and storytelling horizons. More of an evolution than a revolution, this new chapter remains deeply rooted in everything audiences love about LoliRock while expanding its scope and ambition.”
Jean-Baptiste Lamotte, Head of Kids Program and Animation, France Télévisions, comments: “The LoliRock phenomenon is back! A new season with a faithfully modernized design, brought to life by the talents at Zodiak Kids & Family France and its longtime animator, Jean-Louis Vandestoc. An original creation from Okoo that we are proud to support once again.”
Nandish Domlur, CEO, Xentrix Studios: “”We are absolutely delighted to join forces with Zodiak Kids & Family as co-producers for the upcoming season. It is incredibly exciting to be part of the reboot of such an iconic musical franchise and to have the opportunity to bring season 3 to life for its global fandom. Xentrix Studios is producing the new season on a unique and innovative pipeline, which will elevate the visuals and storytelling to the next level. Our ultimate goal is to surprise and delight the fans, and we cannot wait to show everyone what we’ve been building.”
