“Move Over, Disney! Be@rbrick Is About to Be Your New Animated Obsession”
Get ready to jam, because Apple TV+ is bringing some serious musical magic with its latest animated series, Be@rbrick! This high-energy, toe-tapping, and heartwarming show is set to premiere globally on Friday, March 21, and trust us—you won’t want to miss it.
What’s the Buzz About?
Inspired by the iconic collectible figures from Medicom Toy, Be@rbrick is an animated comedy series that blends music, adventure, and self-discovery. Produced and animated by the powerhouse team at DreamWorks Animation and Dentsu Inc., the 13-episode series boasts original songs from none other than four-time Grammy-winning producer Timbaland. If that doesn’t get you hyped, what will?
The Storyline: A Musical Revolution in a Painted-On World
Be@rbrick follows the story of Jasmine Finch and her bandmates as they strive to break free from a world where everyone’s fate is literally painted on at graduation. In this rigid society, your look determines your destiny—but Jasmine isn’t having any of it. She and her friends realize that the only way to change their world is to make it happen themselves. Talk about an anthem for dreamers!
Who’s Behind the Magic?
The series is developed by Daytime Emmy Award nominee Meghan McCarthy (My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, Centaurworld), who not only serves as the showrunner but also as executive producer and writer. The talented crew also includes Alex Almaguer (TrollsTopia) as supervising producer, Taylor Orci (Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts) as story editor, and Athena Hofmann (Amateur) as line producer.
Meet the Stellar Voice Cast
Bringing the characters to life is an incredible voice cast featuring:
- Brianna Bryan as Jasmine
- Skyla I’Lece as Holly
- Isaiah Crews as Nick
- Alison Jaye as Ada
- Noah Bentley as Klaus
The guest star lineup is equally impressive, featuring Tim Meadows (Mr. Hitmaker), Katy Mixon (Ms. Goldenshorts), Ego Nwodim (Charlene), Emily Hampshire (Janet), and Debra Jo Rupp (Miss Milton). Oh, and did we mention that Timbaland himself joins the fun as the voice of BRBX Media DJ? Talk about star power!
Music That Moves You
What’s a music-driven show without an unforgettable score? Alongside Timbaland’s expertise as the executive music producer, the series features an original score by Jina Hyojin An (XO, Kitty) and Shirley Song (Exploding Kittens). Expect beats that will have you nodding your head and lyrics that will stay with you long after the credits roll.
Apple TV+ and DreamWorks Animation: A Winning Combo
Be@rbrick marks yet another exciting collaboration between Apple TV+ and DreamWorks Animation. It joins a stellar lineup that includes the Emmy-nominated Curses! (executive produced by John Krasinski), the GLAAD Media Award-nominated Pinecone & Pony (based on the beloved book The Princess and the Pony by Kate Beaton), and Doug Unplugs, inspired by Dan Yaccarino’s Doug Unplugged book series.
