Today, Apple TV debuted the trailer for “My Brother the Minotaur,” an all-new animated kids and family adventure series set to premiere globally on Friday, April 24. From Academy Award-nominated animation studio Cartoon Saloon and award-winning children’s media company Dog Ears, the series centers on universal themes of growing up, feeling different, discovering where you belong and celebrating the people who truly see you and the places that feel like home.
A thrilling mix of folklore, mystery and adventure about a young minotaur – half boy, half bull – found and raised in the human world. With the help of his fiercely loyal human brother, he recruits a bold group of friends to uncover the mystery of his minotaur past and fulfill his destiny, all while battling dark forces determined to see him fail.
The animated series features voice performances from rising stars Ely Solan, Billy Jenkins, Luciana Akpobaro and Billie Boullet, alongside Michael Sheen, Brian Cox, Paul Kaye and T’Nia Miller.
“My Brother the Minotaur” is produced for Apple by Dog Ears and Cartoon Saloon. Gerry Shirren and Fionnuala Deane serve as executive producers on the show, with producers John McDaid, Nora Twomey, Tomm Moore, Paul Young and Nuria Blanco. “My Brother the Minotaur” was created by Donal Mangan, written by Mark Hodkinson and directed by Maurice Joyce.
