Canada’s DHX Media and New York-based Iconix Brand Group have partnered to develop and produce a new animated series based on the Strawberry Shortcake brand.
As outlined in the long-term agreement, the companies will co-develop, finance and produce at least 39 new half-hour episodes of Strawberry Shortcake, with the option to produce more.
DHX Media will produce and globally distribute the new show, with its international licensing agency, CPLG, holding first-right of negotiation to represent the brand in certain territories. Iconix will handle global merchandising and licensing for the brand.
