LOONEY TUNES To Return in 2019!
On Monday, Warner Bros. Animation announced its plans for “Looney Tunes Cartoons," a series of new short-form cartoons starring iconic and beloved Looney Tunes characters like Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig. Multiple artists will work together on the program to produce a “season" full of 1,000 minutes of all-new Looney Tunes animation. The animated shorts will be distributed across digital, mobile and broadcast platforms and arrive in 2019.Interesting. I wonder what, if any “names” will be getting showcased in these new shorts, or if it will be like the old What-A-Cartoon! series from Turner, where new cartoonists get to show their stuff.According to Warner Bros’ official description, “Looney Tunes Cartoons" echoes the high production value and process of the original Looney Tunes theatrical shorts with a cartoonist-driven approach to storytelling. Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig and other marquee Looney Tunes characters will be featured in their classic pairings in simple, gag-driven and visually vibrant stories. Each cartoon will vary from one to six minutes in length and, from the premise on through to the jokes, will be “written" and drawn by the cartoonists allowing their own personality and style to come through in each cartoon.
