Disney Branded Television acquires seasons six and seven of “Miraculous”

Global independent animation studio ZAG and Method Animation (Mediawan Kids & Family) announced that Disney Branded Television has acquired seasons six and seven of the globally renowned series “Miraculous - Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir,” as well as three original animated specials. The new season and specials will be available on Disney Channels worldwide, and on Disney+ globally thereafter.

“Miraculous - Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir” follows the adventures of two seemingly typical teens with secret identities, Marinette and Adrien, who magically transform into superheroes Ladybug and Cat Noir to save their city of Paris from unexpected villains. The two new seasons, each consisting of 26x22-minute episodes, and original specials are produced in collaboration with Disney Branded Television, Brazil’s Globosat, Italy’s KidsMe, and France’s TF1.

Currently in production for a fall 2024 launch, season six of “Miraculous” finds the superheroes facing a new and skillfull enemy. Meanwhile, their alter-egos Marinette and Adrien have never been closer but are still keeping secrets from each other. Set in a revitalized eco-friendly Paris, the heroes are about to experience a school year full of emotions and revelation.

Now available on Disney Channel and Disney+ US, the first 44-minute special, “Miraculous World: Paris, Tales of Shadybug & Claw Noir,” showcases Ladybug and Cat Noir discovering a parallel world where the holders of the miraculous of the Ladybug and the Black Cat are evil, while the holder of the miraculous of the butterfly is a hero. The second of the three specials is currently in pre-production.

“We are excited to continue working with Disney Branded Television to create first-class content for ‘Miraculous’ fans everywhere. Our audiences resonate with this coming-of-age series about ordinary kids learning the importance of believing in themselves and understanding that you do not need to be a superhero or wear a mask to reach your dreams and overcome fears,”  commented Jeremy Zag, Founder and CEO of ZAG.

“We are thrilled to continue the wonderful adventure of the two most famous superheroes among children with ZAG and our long-standing partner Disney Branded Television. The ‘Miraculous’ universe continues to expand, captivating an increasingly vast and demanding fan community. These new adventures will meet their expectations and are poised to surprise and inspire dreams,”  added Julien Borde, President of Mediawan Kids & Family.
