Tiger Aspect Kids & Family strikes deal with publisher Little Tiger

Aliens Love Underpants

Tiger Aspect Kids & Family, part of Banijay Kids & Family, is partnering with children’s publisher Little Tiger, to option and develop animated and live-action TV projects.

The prodco will create shows based on the publisher’s properties, aimed at children of all ages and families, with new picture book titles releasing in 2023 through the firm including Harry Woodgate’s Timid; Karl Newson & Duncan Beedle’s I Really, Really Love You So; and Nicola Edwards & Jenny Bloomfield’s Now We’re Together.

Led by MD Tom Beattie, Tiger Aspect Kids & Family live-action series and animated shows, with titles including Aliens Love Underpants, Charlie and Lola, Mr Bean: The Animated Series, Danny & Mick, Tinga Tinga Tales Corpse Talk and the recently announced Super Happy Magic Forest.

“This felt like a perfect partnership, not just because we both have ‘Tiger’ in the company names,” said Beattie.

“Little Tiger creates some brilliant characters and worlds that fit with the Tiger Aspect Kids & Family DNA, and so it made sense to work more closely together. We have a proven track record of taking books to screen and we’re excited with what is to come.”
