Pre-MIPCOM Round-Up: Animated Offerings from Studio 100, Moon-Keys, Digitoonz & More

Louca, the CG-animated adaptation of the hit French comic-book series, distributed by Studio 100 International (studio100international.com), is heading to MIPCOM with an impressive lineup of broadcast and streaming partners already on board. Ahead of the market, the series has secured multiple pre-sales and co-production deals, led by commissioning broadcaster TF1. Additional partners include RTBF (Belgium), TFOU Max (France), RTS (Switzerland) and TV5 Monde, with several more in final negotiations.

The animated comedy series (26 x 22’ — delivery in first half of 2026) follows Louca, a kind-hearted but clumsy teenager who dreams of becoming a football hero — with a little help from Nathan, the ghost of his school’s former team captain. Only Louca can see Nathan, and together they navigate friendship, self-belief, and the unpredictable highs and lows of growing up.

Louca is a co-production between French producer Media Valley (Gifted) and Belgian producer Belvision (Marsupilamis), directed by Cyril Adam (Miraculous Ladybug). Studio 100 International is also handling global licensing and merchandising, with TF1 Licensing managing these rights in French-speaking territories.
