Elliott From Earth,is a new Cartoon Network 20x11 minutes animated program that will begin production in September. The series will follow a human boy who inexplicably finds himself living on a giant spaceship filled with aliens from all walks of life. The series will focus on "finding your place in the world, even if it's in outer space."
Guillaume Cassuto is spearheading development on the series, which will be produced out of Cartoon Network's EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) hub.
In a press release, Cassuto stated, "Elliott's story has been in the back of my mind for a long time and working my way through a number of different roles on Gumball gave me a unique look into how to bring such a project to life. I’m beyond excited to have the chance to introduce Elliott to the world, and very proud to have this amazing team with me for the ride. I hope kids and animation fans across the universe will love Elliott just as much as we do."
Though Elliot From Earth is spearheaded by a key creative team from The Amazing World of Gumball that animated television series is expected to continue.
