Cartoon Network to chronicle Matt Hatter

Cartoon Network in the Middle East, Africa and Southern Europe has acquired three season of Platinum Film’s animated series Matt Hatter Chronicles.

The deal with Platinum, which distributes as well as producing the show, means Matt Hatter will be on the Turner kids channel in the Middle East, Turkey, Greece, Cyprus and Africa.

Platinum has already shopped the series to Cartoon Network in India.

The show started out on ITV and Nickelodoen in the UK and has also been picked up internationally by broadcasters including Rai in Italy, RTVE in Spain and Canal Panda in Iberia.

Nigel Stone, CEO at Platinum Films said: “Matt Hatter Chronicles continues to go from strength to strength and we are delighted to be extending our alliance with Cartoon Network in this significant multi-territory deal.”
