‘Iyanu’ Studio Lion Forge Adapting Hot YouTube Series ‘Lostlings’ For TV
A 'Lostlings' TV show is coming from Lion Forge, the studio behind 'Iyanu', after a successful YouTube series made by TalesVision.
When their friend Jesse becomes the latest victim – and the first ‘Lostling’ to not return after one year – a group of teens sets out to rescue him and, in doing so, free their town from its curse once and for all. The shortform YouTube version has amassed more than 17 million views and feeds into producer TalesVision and its founder duo Tristan Tales and Luke Pounder’s approach to test new IP and concepts via social media. Lion Forge has also recently joined forces with George R. R. Martin to adapt novella A Dozen Tough Jobs into an adult animated feature film, while setting a strategic alliance with Ed Barnieh and his new company Oware to identify and develop YA content that originates outside the U.S., and is made by and for the global majority.
