Cartoon Network's Iyanu Debuts April 5; Chelsea Handler: The Feeling Premieres March 25 on Netflix

The highly anticipated Cartoon Network animated series Iyanu will debut Sunday, April 6 on Max, following the April 5 debut on Cartoon Network. The official trailer giving audiences another glimpse into the captivating story based on Nigerian culture and mythology has also been released. Adapted from Roye Okupe's graphic novel series Iyanu: Child of Wonder, published by YouNeek Studios and Dark Horse Comics (the powerhouse behind The Umbrella Academy and Hellboy), the series is helmed by Roye Okupe himself, who was born and raised in Nigeria and now serves as Creator, Executive Producer and Showrunner. The series is produced by Lion Forge Entertainment, a leading Black-owned animation studio in North America.

Drawing on Nigerian culture, music, and mythology, the animated series follows Iyanu, a brave young orphan living in the magical kingdom of Yorubaland. While studying history and ancient arts, she yearns for a normal life - until a looming threat awakens divine powers not seen since the legendary Age of Wonders. Accompanied by newfound friends Biyi, Toye, and a magical leopard named Ekun, Iyanu sets out to uncover the source of this evil, unlocking her destiny along the way. The talented all-African Iyanu voice cast includes: Serah Johnson as Iyanu; Okey Jude as Biyi, Iyanu's carefree adventurer friend; Samuel Kugbiyi as Toye, Iyanu's bookworm companion; Adesua Etomi-Wellington as Olori; Blossom Chukwujekwu as Kanfo, Toye's father; Stella Damasus as Sewa; Shaffy Bello as Emi - The One Mother; and Ike Ononye as Elder Alapani.
