Amazon orders adult animation from Aubrey Plaza & Joe Wengert

Amazon streamer Prime Video has greenlit Kevin, a new adult animation from Aubrey Plaza and Joe Wengert.

The two will write and executive produce the series, with the latter serving as showrunner, and Dan Murphy also executive producing.

Kevin is about a life-long housecat who decides that he doesn’t want to live with people anymore and is loosely inspired by a real break-up and the cat caught in the middle.

The series is produced by Titmouse, Evil Hag Productions, and Amazon MGM Studios.

“Uniquely told through the lens of a housecat, this hilarious series hits on the extremely relatable theme of self-discovery and living your desired life,” said Melissa Wolfe, head of animation, Amazon MGM Studios. “Aubrey, Joe, and Dan are telling a fantastic story and this is a great addition to our growing animated slate for our global Prime Video customers.”
