Leading Latin American animation studio Ánima has launched a dedicated adult-young adult division and announced that later this year it will begin production on “El Santos,” a serialized version of the company’s 2012 comic book-inspired feature “El Santos vs la Tetona Mendoza.”

“We’ve seen so much appetite from platforms and networks for content that’s animated for adults and young adults,” García de Letona explained to. “Nowadays, new shows release every other week, and I think it demonstrates that there is a new generation more willing to embrace the medium, and not only in comedy either. Adult animation is being produced for every genre. For us, this has huge potential for storytelling.

For its first production the right project was obvious, at least to the producers at Ánima. “’El Santos’ has a huge built-in audience internationally. Also, the sense of humor of the creators totally fits what is being produced today. I think they were ahead of their time,” said García de Letona. As was the case with the feature film, “El Santos” will be action-packed, brightly colored and 2D animated, with a twisted sense of humor that spoofs many aspects of contemporary culture. And, while García de Letona explained that no voice talent has been contacted yet for the series, several creative staff from the feature film will be working on the series adaptation.

For the time being, Ánima is only ready to announce “El Santos,” but García de Letona did tease that several other projects are already in development, of both existing IPs and entirely new stories from promising new creative talent.
