Peekaboo Animation takes part in “The Triplets” reboot project

Since last March, the Barcelona-based production company Peekaboo Animation is in charge of piloting the new television version of “The Triplets”, based on the literary work created by Roser Capdevila more than 30 years ago. The adventures of Anna, Teresa and Helena will return to the small screen in a new two-season series in 2D, which is currently in advanced development.

Mar Gaya will continue to be involved as Executive Producer of the project alongside the Peekaboo team and in charge of international distribution. Peekaboo Animation will attend the next MIPTV in Cannes representing this and other projects in its development pipeline.

“The Triplets” narrates the adventures of Anna, Teresa and Helena, three 9-year-old sisters who will meet interesting characters from History thanks to the eccentric Bored Witch and her omnipresent pet, the Owl. In their adventures, the twins will show us the funniest aspects of these characters, they will live adventures and will solve mysteries that will make them learn and grow together to the audience. The project, which consists of two seasons of 26x11’ each, has been already commissioned by main kids’ channels in Spain: CLAN from RTVE and SX3 from 3CAT.

Iván Agenjo, co-founder and CEO at Peekaboo Animation made reference to the market potential of the series: “We are very happy to participate in a project like this one, which involves adapting a national animation classic for a new generation of boys and girls. The universe of Roser Capdevila and the values associated with the series are known in more than 160 countries and in 35 languages, they have captivated several generations so far and have enormous market potential;" noted.

In turn, Javier Galán, co-founder and Chief Creative Officer, emphasized on maintaining the essence of the original material: "For us it is a great responsibility to preserve the essence and spirit of Roser Capdevila's original work, but, at the same time, it is a great creative challenge that inspires us and gets us excited", commented.
