Emmy-nominated producer David Marshall teams up with seasoned industry veteran Todd Gallina to create Force 5, an animated sci-fi comedy series aimed at children aged 7 to 12. The project marks a new creative venture for the duo, who are introducing the show at major international events including the Kidscreen Summit and MIP London. Set in a futuristic world, the series centers on a diverse group of teenage recruits brought together for high-stakes missions that blend humor, adventure, and imaginative science fiction elements.
The story follows a rag-tag team of teens as they navigate challenges that test their skills, teamwork, and courage. With a tone balancing lighthearted fun and clever storytelling, Force 5 aims to engage young audiences through dynamic animation and relatable characters. The series reflects a strong emphasis on youth empowerment and collaboration, while exploring inventive concepts within its sci-fi framework. Production is underway with plans for global distribution.
