Three new seasons of 26 episodes each are confirmed and in production, as a co-joint venture between the French television channel TF1, the Belgian channel La Trois, the French animation company
Blue Spirit and Jean Chalopin's company
Movie-Plus Group.
[18] The first of these seasons will see the series move to China. The design of the characters will be the same with some subtle upgrades in the animation. Jean Chalopin produces the show and acts as a creative consultant for the script, which is written by Hadrian Soulez-Lariviere from Chalopin's own draft for the sequel; while Bernard Deyries reportedly serves as art director. New background music will be composed by
Noam Kaniel.
[19] A 45-minute special, including the first two episodes, was released on December 9, 2012 on TF1, while the other episodes are expected to start airing sometime in the first half of 2013. Each episode will have a summary of the previous episode, a teaser to the next and a small documentary at the end. A trailer for the new season has been released in Annecy Animation Festival.
