FREEFORM DIVES INTO ANIMATION WITH TWO FEMALE-FOCUSED ANIMATED PROJECTS IN DEVELOPMENT

"BETCHES"

Based on the insanely popular multimedia brand of the same name, created by three millennial women, "Betches" is a half-hour, irreverent animated series that will follow three best friends and roommates as they navigate early adulthood in New York City together. The three women loudly try to figure out who they are in their careers and in love. They make almost every mistake in the book along the way, but they're doing their best to make sure they have an anything-but-basic life. Rachel Koller ("Lady Bits with Lauren Giraldo") will write the pilot and Emma Roberts ("American Horror Story"), Samantha Fishbein (co-founder of Betches Media), Jordana Abraham (co-founder of Betches Media), Aleen Kuperman (co-founder of Betches Media), Carli Haney, Kesila Childers and Gil Goldschein from Bunim-Murray Productions ("Keeping Up With The Kardashians," "The Real World") are set to executive produce.

"WOMAN WORLD"

"Woman World" is a half-hour, comedic animated series based on Aminder Dhaliwal's graphic novel of the same name. The pilot playfully answers the question "what would our world look like if men became extinct?" This community of women leans on each other for survival as they search for love and their identity in this ladies-only existence. The pilot is executive produced by Felicia Day ("The Guild," "Geek & Sundry") and written by Aminder Dhaliwal ("Pinky Malinky," "Close Enough").

Ashley Nicole Williams joins the cast as Abigail Bellweather, a driven and courageous witch who is excited to join the ranks of the witches' army. The series also stars Taylor Hickson, Jessica Sutton, Amalia Holm and Demetria McKinney, rounding out the cast of series regulars.
