Hulu Announces Animated Kids Show 'The Bravest Knight'

This June, Hulu will be launching The Bravest Knight for their lineup of kid friendly programming. The Bravest Knight is about a dad, Sir Cedric, who regales his young daughter with stories of how he went from being a humble pumpkin farmer to becoming one of the most bravest knights that ever lived. His adopted daughter, Nia, is training to be a knight, too, so she's happy to hear the stories.

Those stories revolve around the concepts of justice, honor, compassion for others, not just daring-do. The show will also show that gay couples are natural, loving, and care for each other, which could help counteract some of ingrained societal prejudice aimed at LGBTQ families.

Sir Cedric is married to the love of his life, Prince Andrew, and they are raising their daughter together with the help of Cedric's troll buddy, Grunt. The series is based off of The Bravest Knight Who Ever Lived, a popular children's book by Daniel Errico.

The series has a fantastic line-up of voice talent, lead by T.R. Knight, who voices Sir Cedric, and Bobby Moynihan, who is voicing Grunt the troll. Storm Reid plays Cedric's daughter, Nia, with additional voice work from RuPaul, Wanda Sykes, Christine Baranski, Wilson Cruz, Teri Polo, Steven Weber, A.J. McLean, Donna Murphy, Dot-Marie Jones, Chance Hurstfield, and Maz Jobrani.

The opening song is from Justin Tranter, who has been nominated for a Grammy, which you can hear in the trailer.

The Bravest Knight is joining a growing list of original programming for children on Hulu, alongside Holly Hobbie, Doozers, and Find Me in Paris. Look for The Bravest Knight when the first five episodes launch on June 21st.

The Bravest Knight will be produced by Big Bad Boo Studios.
