WILDBRAIN SECURES GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS FOR NEW ANIMATED COMEDY-ADVENTURE SERIES SAVING ME

Toronto, ON – October 27, 2022 – WildBrain, a global leader in kids’ and family entertainment, has secured worldwide distribution rights for seasons one and two of the brand-new 2D-animated comedy-adventure series, Saving Me (20x22’ total). Produced by Montreal’s Sphere Animation in partnership with BYUtv, the series is currently available for delivery.


An animated boy wearing a jetpack faces the camera and smiles. Behind him are an older brown-haired boy holding a stick threateningly, a young pink-haired girl with two buns in her hair and a futuristic headset, a round flying robot and an older man wearing glasses and a trench coat.

What would you tell your 11-year-old self if you had the chance? Saving Me is the story of a tech billionaire from the distant future who has messed up his life, relationships and the world, but who now has the opportunity to reinvent his life and the future by going back in time to team up with…himself.

It’s laugh-out-loud fun and a terrific addition to our robust catalogue of animated content. We’re excited to share this entertaining adventure series with audiences around the world.”
