Teletoon Canada and Bejuba! Entertainment are teaming up to develop a hybrid live-action/CGI series for tweens based on the original book The Sherlock Legacy.
The book, written by kids programming exec Terry Kalagian and Geoff Skinner, follows 15-year-old Leo Sherlock, who is heir to a secret order that has kept the world safe from such villains as Dracula, Grendel and Moriarty.
‘We are delighted that Teletoon has seen the enormous potential this story has to offer,’ said Bejuba! Entertainment’s president, Tatiana Kober. ‘These stories will easily translate into exciting and funny entertainment for today’s teen audiences.’
‘We are thrilled to be working with Bejuba! Entertainment again,’ said Carole Bonneau, VP of programming for Teletoon. ‘The numerous possibilities presented by the classic villains, intricate mysteries and supernatural action in this new series makes The Sherlock Legacy a good candidate for development.’
