At MIFA 2020 in Annecy, France, Cyber Group Studios revealed that it has entered production on its latest animated series, 50/50 Heroes.

Developed in collaboration with France Télévisions, 50/50 Heroes is the story or Mo and Sam, half-siblings who inherited superhero powers “from their great-great-great-grandma who had a fling with a superhero many moons ago.” According to Cyber Group, the half-siblings have to split their powers down the middle, acting as “sorta superheroes” with no suits and no missions.

“I am particularly happy to work with France Télévisions on this new comedy series and to work together with such talented artists both in our Paris and Roubaix studio, dedicated to creating new animation using groundbreaking technology for our upcoming productions in CG and 2D,” says Pierre Sissmann, president and CEO of Cyber Group Studios.

Broadcast partners for 50/50 Heroes will be announced in the months ahead.
