Animated Gremlins prequel gets an early Season 2 renewal at HBO Max
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ahead of Gremlins: The Secrets of the Mogwai's upcoming debut
sometime this year, Deadline brings word that HBO Max has
officially granted Warner Bros. Animation and Amblin Television's
upcoming animated Gremlins prequel series an early second season
renewal. This comes a day after it was confirmed that Mulan's
Ming-Na Wen, BD Wong, and Matthew Rhys have joined the series'
voice cast.
Set in 1920s Shanghai, Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai will tell
the story of how 10-year-old Sam Wing (future shop owner Mr. Wing
in the 1984 movie) met the young Mogwai called Gizmo. Along with
a teenage street thief named Elle, Sam and Gizmo take a perilous
journey through the Chinese countryside, encountering, and
sometimes battling, colorful monsters and spirits from Chinese
folklore. On their quest to return Gizmo to his family and uncover
a legendary treasure, they are pursued by a power-hungry
industrialist and his growing army of evil Gremlins.
Sam is set to be voiced by Izaac Wang (Raya and the Last Dragon)
while Wen will voice his mother Fong, a doctor of Chinese medicine
who is "resourceful, slyly funny and fiercely protective of her
family," and his father Hon will be voiced by Wong, described as a
"calm rock" who "never believed his father-in-law's tales of magic
and adventure." The family grandfather is set to be voiced by
James Hong (Big Trouble in Little China) while Gizmo will be
voiced by A.J. Locascio, Gabrielle Green voicing a human-friend of
Sam's and Rhys set to star as Riley Greene, an English
industrialist and treasure hunter who uses black magic on a quest
for power and will stop at nothing to acquire Gizmo and the
mythical treasure of the titular species.
Tze Chun (Children of Invention, Gotham) will write and
co-executive produce the 10-episode series. Darryl Frank and
Justin Falvey will serve as executive producers for Amblin
Television along with Sam Register. Brendan Hay will serve as
co-executive producer with Dan Krall serving as supervising
producer. The series is produced by Amblin in association with
Warner Bros. Animation.
Gremlins first took the box office by storm in director Joe
Dante's 1984 Christmas/horror/comedy. In 1990, Dante returned for
Gremlins 2: The New Batch, which had a much lighter
tongue-in-cheek tone than the first film.
