Netflix to make animated series based on Cuphead

Netflix and King Features Syndicate have announced The Cuphead Show! based on the action platformer Cuphead.

The animated series will take place in the world of Cuphead and its characters, as well as an animation style inspired by the classic Fleischer Studios cartoons of the 1930s. The plot tells about the misadventures of Cuphead and his brother Mugman.

"Jared and I grew up on a constant diet of hand-animated classics - some of our favorite memories are intertwined with early Disney, Ub Iwerks and Fleischer Studios," said Studio MDHR director Chad Moldenhauer. “These cartoons are the main reason Cuphead came into being, and the idea of ​​our little animated adventure becoming a cartoon is surreal and beautiful. We couldn't think of a better partner than King Features and Netflix and are so excited that Cuphead fans and new audiences will experience the world of Ink Islands as the talented Netflix Animation team sees it."

Cuphead is out on PC, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One. Project sales recently exceeded 4 million copies. The Studio MDHR team is currently working on extension The Delicious Last Course, which will be released in 2020. And then, perhaps, he will deal with the next part of the game.
