Superprod Films, Superprod’s live-action division, has just produced a live-action feature film adapted from the same book property, in partnership with SND (M6 Group), Bidibul Productions and Frakas. The movie is a family comedy set to be released theatrically later this year.

“It’s a long lasting and relationship we have with Thierry Coppée, the creator of That’s Joey, and Delcourt, its publisher. We are very happy to enrich it and that an even wider audience can follow Joey’s adventures.” say Clément Calvet and Jérémie Fajner, producers at Superprod Animation.

“It is a real asset to have a brand as strong and well-known as That’s Joey in our catalogue. In this new 3D series, we meet an adorable character, full of humor and kindness.” says Nathalie Pinguet, Deputy General Manager of Superights.
