Studio Ghibli reveals trailer for first TV series, Ronja, The Robber’s Daughter
Legendary animation company Studio Ghibli has shared the trailer for its first TV series, Ronja, The Robber’s Daughter.
They are best known for making movies, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away.
Ronja is about a young girl who explores a magical world around her, while learning important lessons about friendship and family.
These themes will be familiar to anyone who has seen other Ghibli productions.
The show is about the friendship between children from two rival clans of robbers.
Ronja is an adaptation of a children’s book of the same name written by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren.
The children encounter fantastic creatures living in a magical forest
Studio Ghibli is best known for movies such as Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and Kiki’s Delivery Service.
Traditionally Studio Ghibli productions have been known for hand-drawn art and animation in their movies, but Ronja uses more modern computer generated techniques.
The animation has more in common with Ghibli’s 2010 video game collaboration Ni No Kuni than it does their iconic movies.
The series will premiere on 27 January 2017
The series has been directed by Goro Miyazaki, the son of Studio Ghibli’s founder Hayao Miyazki.
Ronja, The Robber’s Daugher will be shown on Amazon Prime and premiere online on 27 January 2017.
