Moominvalley’s voice cast includes Kate Winslet and Rosamund Pike

PGS Entertainment in France has picked up the global distribution rights to Gutsy Animation’s reboot of classic kids’ property The Moomins.

Moominvalley (13×22′) recently began airing on commissioning broadcasters YLE in Finland and Sky in the UK. It has also been acquired by NHK in Japan and as-yet-unannounced buyers in China and South Korea.

Described as the most expensive animated TV series to have come out of Europe, Moominvalley is directed by Steve Box (Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit) and is based on Tove Jansson’s well-known novels and comic strips.

It features an all-star voice cast, including Kate Winslet, Rosamund Pike, Taron Egerton and Matt Berry. To read more about the series, click here.
