There was a recent rejected pitch to DreamWorks Television Animation for a Penguins of Madagascar revival from a visual development artist behind Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse

    This is neat but I imagine that this would have been VERY expensive.

    Yeah and their current artstyle which sells and is fine would be way cheaper I imagine

    I mainly meant that this would have been too expensive for a TV show. It might have a chance as a movie.

    Yeah, this seems like a lot for Television if you aren't backed by League of Legends money.

    I originally saw it on Twitter, but the artist Kade Byrand is also on here. The full gallery from the artist's portfolio is also on here, with some of the episode pitches being here too

    This is pretty! I wished this came to fruition.

    I LOVED the original show growing up.

    I didn’t think anyone at Dreamworks would give enough of a shit to consider continuing the Penguins show instead of picking up after the movie.

    Yeah but with the common agreed upon idea that a 4th Madagascar is too difficult to get off the ground, they really should be considering TV continuations for the franchise more

    I have no idea why there aren't dozens of Madagascar movies coming out

    Seems like they're really easy to make well

    They already did 4 movies (3 mainline, 1 spinoff) and 3 separate tv shows which all went pretty long, I'd imagine they already milked most of what they were getting out of that cow.

    I'd say Universal is about done with that series, but we're getting another Ice Age movie out of nowhere so honestly at this point it's anyone's guess

    My guess is they'll sit on the IP for a few years longer and then bring it back when nostalgia's firmly taken root, like they seem to be trying with Puss In Boots/Shrek.

    They can't not put 100% effort into the concept art. the stylization in concept is crazy

    Could they get the OG show voice cast back?!

    I feel like 20% of the reasons the penguins movie failed is that they brought back the film voices of Private and Kowalski and it was off-putting to viewers who were used to their TV voices

    I think they just overestimated the brand appeal of the Penguins. People like them but they were never the phenomenon the Minions were.
