Apple TV+ New Animated Comedy Curses!; Paramount+ Trailer for Colin from Accounts

Apple TV+ released the trailer for the new animated, spooky adventure series for kids from DreamWorks Animation, CURSES!, premiering just in time for Halloween on Friday, October 27. When a generations-long family curse turns Alex Vanderhouven to stone, it's up to his two kids, Pandora and Russ, along with his wife Sky, to return artifacts stolen by their ancestors to their rightful homes and finally lift the curse for good. The family-oriented series is 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 supervising producer, with Chris Copeland (Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts) and Justin Copeland (Wonder Woman: Bloodlines) serving as creative consultants.
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.”
Paramount+ debuted the official trailer for the new original comedy series Colin from Accounts. The series will premiere with two episodes on Thursday, November 9, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. Following its premiere, two new episodes will be available to stream weekly on Thursdays through November 30. Colin from Accounts first debuted last year in Australia to critical and viewer acclaim with The Guardian calling it a “hilariously joyful piece of TV.” Colin from Accounts is centered on Ashley (Harriet Dyer) and Gordon (Patrick Brammall), two single(ish), complex humans who are brought together by a nipple flash, a car accident and an injured dog. In addition to Dyer and Brammall, the series stars Emma Harvie as Megan, Helen Thomson as Lynelle, Genevieve Hegney as Chiara, Michael Logo as Brett and Tai Hara as James.
