If you were a fan of the character Unikitty in 2014’sThe LEGO Movie, then boy are you in for a treat today! Cartoon Network announced that they’re transporting viewers to a joyous kingdom full of sparkle matter, happy thoughts and the occasional rage-out inUnikitty!, an all-new animated series produced by Warner Bros. Animation. The series follows Unikitty and a whole cast of friends into a world full of adventure, excitement and dance parties.
Now, whenI spoke with voice actorTara Stronga little while back for this season ofMy Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, she teased a new project, saying the role was “brand-new and original for [her], but it did have a previous appearance in a film … It’s going to be adorable.” It looks like Strong’s starring role as Unikitty is the adorable character in question! But if she’s anything like her movie counterpart, the cute critter can go critical when ticked off, so watch out!
Unikitty!also features veteran voice actorGrey Griffin(Be Cool Scooby-Doo!) along withKate Micucci(Be Cool Scooby-Doo!),Roger Craig Smith(Regular Show),Eric Bauza(The Adventures of Puss in Boots) andH. Michael Croner(Review).
Check out the first image and synopsis forUnikitty!below:
As ruler of the kingdom, Unikitty has busy days full of royal responsibilities. Unikitty is most interested in making sure everyone is happy and ridding the kingdom of negativity, but don’t misunderstand her optimism – she is one kitty not to be crossed. While she may be full of boundless energy and creativity, Unikitty is a force to be reckoned with if anyone gets in the way of spreading her positive vibes, especially if anyone makes her little brother and best friend, Puppycorn, sad. Also living in the castle are Dr. Fox, the resident scientist, and Unikitty’s trusty bodyguard, Hawkodile. Through it all, Unikitty and her friends make sure that every day is the happiest and most creative ever.
