DreamWorks Animation is on a roll in delivering family frights this spooky season, starting with “Fright Krewe” at the beginning of the month. Up next is the new animated series “Curses!” and it’s set to arrive just in time for Halloween. Apple TV+ released the trailer for the spooky adventure series for kids today, giving a glimpse of the fun.
“Curses!” will be released on Apple TV+ on Friday, October 27.
In the series, “when a generations-long family curse turns Alex Vanderhouven to stone, it’s up to his two kids, Pandora and Russ, and his wife Sky, to return artifacts stolen by their ancestors to their rightful homes to finally lift the curse for good.”
The new trailer below highlights the horror-leaning family adventure ahead, with creatures and cursed artifacts.
The new animated series also boasts an impressive voice cast packed with talent, including a horror icon. The series features the voice talents of Emmy Award nominee Gabrielle Nevaeh (“Monster High”) as “Pandora,” Andre Robinson (“The Loud House”) as “Russ,” Emmy Award nominee Lyric Lewis (“Waffles + Mochi”) as “Sky,” SAG award winner Reid Scott (“Veep”) as “Alex,” Rhys Darby (“Our Flag Means Death”) as “Stanley,” James Marsters (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”) as “Larry,” Emmy Award winner Rhea Perlman (“Barbie”) as “Margie,” Tony Award winner Phylicia Rashad (“A Raisin in the Sun”) as “Georgia Snitker,” and Robert Englund (“A Nightmare on Elm Street”) as “Cornelius.”
“Curses!” was created and executive produced by Jim Cooper (“DreamWorks Dragons”) and Jeff Dixon (“The Hurricane Heist”). John Krasinski (“A Quiet Place” Parts I & II) also serves as executive producer, and Allyson Seeger (“Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan”) as co-executive producer. Leo Riley (“Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Tron: Uprising”) is the supervising producer, with Chris Copeland (“Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts”) and Justin Copeland (“Wonder Woman: Bloodlines”) serving as creative consultants.
To recap, this DreamWorks Animation series brings the haunted house adventure fun, includes James Marsters and Robert Englund among its voice cast, and is executive produced by A Quiet Place director John Krasinski. All of which sounds like a solid recipe for enchanting gateway horror.
Look for the 10-episode series to debut just in time for Halloween on October 27.
