Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent “Asterix,” the popular French comics franchise, is set for a new animated journey.
Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de la Patelliere, whose latest film “The Count of Monte-Cristo” is premiering at the Cannes Film Festival, have penned “Asterix, the Kingdom of Nubia.” SND, the commercial arm of French network M6, has boarded the film and will kick off international sales at the Cannes Film Market, where they will present a sizzle reel to buyers.
The film is directed by Alexandre Heboyan, who previously helmed “Mune,” and attended the prestigious Gobelins school in France before working at DreamWorks.
M6 Studio is producing the movie, which follows Asterix and Obelix on a wild journey to the Kingdom of Nubia. The project follows “Asterix, the Mansions of the Gods” and “Asterix, the Secret of the Magic Potion,” which were also produced by M6 Studio. “Asterix and Obelix” is an iconic French IP with more than 200 million books sold, 10 animated movies and six live-action films, one of which was France’s highest-grossing local film in 2023.
