Canada, Lat Am onboard Poppetstown

Decode Enterprises, the distribution arm of Canada’s DHX Media, and Spain’s Neptuno Films have signed further deals for their new preschool coproduction Poppetstown.

TVO and Knowledge in Canada, and Disney Channel Latin America have followed France’s Canal J, TeleQuebec and Disney International (for its channels in the UK, Spain, Scandinavia, Italy, Australasia and Taiwan) in acquiring the 2D animated show.

The 26×30’/52×11′ series is an official Canada-Spain copro in association with OLC/Rights Entertainment in Japan.

Neptuno has distribution rights for Spain, Portugal and Latin America, while OLC has the rights for Japan. Decode handles sales to the rest of the world.

Neil Court, president of Decode Enterprises, said: “TVO, Knowledge and Disney Latin America join a line-up of major broadcasters internationally that will air the new series, which is a fantastic testament to its appeal.”
