PLATINUM, RELATIVITY SELECT ANI HOUSE FOR DYLAN DOG FEATURE
Press Release
Platinum Studios, an entertainment company that controls the world's largest independent library of comic book characters, and Relativity Management, one of Hollywood’s leading talent management firms, have selected The Shop Animation Studios, an innovative feature-film production company specializing in computer-animation to develop and co-produce “Dylan Dog: The Fourth Kingdom”. The feature film, which is based on the Italian comic book series “Dylan Dog”, will be the first computer animated thriller.
Relativity is concluding foreign sales components for the film, with discussions underway with different domestic studios for distribution. The film is scheduled to start production in March 2005 at The Shop in Vancouver.
"The Shop knows how to push boundaries on both style and efficiency -- a very rare combination,” said Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, chairman of Platinum Studios which includes “Dylan Dog” in its vast library of titles. “With The Shop as our theatrical animation partners, starting with Dylan, we have the resources to brand our characters worldwide by utilizing our digital assets for games, licensing and all other media.”
Ian Pearson, co-founder of The Shop, will direct, based on a script he co-wrote with long-time creative partner Gavin Blair. This is Pearson’s first major creative endeavor since stepping down as the president and CEO of Mainframe Entertainment, where he created and/or produced such award-winning projects as ”Reboot,” ”Barbie in the Nutcracker,” ”Action Man,” ”War Planets” and ”Weird-Ohs.”
“For years I’ve been trying to find the right character to tell a more mature story using animation and Dylan Dog is the perfect vehicle,” said Pearson. “Although it has a lot of humor, Dylan is a much darker animated feature. It will surprise the animation audience.”
“Dylan Dog: The Fourth Kingdom” follows the latest case of Dylan Dog, an investigator of nightmares. Dylan must stop a supernatural serial killer intent on becoming a new deity and ruler of “The Fourth Kingdom,” a new afterlife. If Dylan fails, the current love of his life will die and the forces of heaven and hell may unleash Armageddon upon the Earth. The Shop’s president and co-founder, Aaron L. Gilbert, and Rosenberg are producing, with Ryan Kavanaugh, Relativity’s CEO, serving as executive producer with Ervin Rustemagic.
“Dylan is one of those rare opportunities when a project has global commercial appeal and a unique story,” said Kavanaugh. “It is perhaps one of the most well branded properties in the world and Pearson and Blair have written a compelling story which combined with The Shop’s production and technical team, we will deliver a stunning film unlike any other animated feature for audiences around the world.”
Created by Tiziano Sclavi, "Dylan Dog", has sold more than 80 million copies worldwide since its debut in 1985. The comic from the Platinum Studios library, is part of Italian publisher Bonelli Editore’s universe of characters, which combined have amassed sales of several hundred million dollars worldwide.
”We created The Shop to make computer-animation accessible to a broader audience,” said Gilbert. “It’s time to go in different directions with the stories being told. Starting with Dylan Dog, we are targeting a more mature, visually literate audience, and providing content for the gamer generation.”

znas sta to znaci?
da ipak nisu odustali od americkog trzista! covjece nakon svih peripetija i slabih prodaja dylana medju amerima, ovo je pravi potez. za pet godina bonellijevi junaci bi se tamo mogli prodavati kao mange danas. ;-)

Da, svašta se pricalo o Platinumu, koji je, ako se ne varam, filijala/podkompanija/ispostava SAF-a.
Ne bih ni ja žurio sa optimizmom.
