Apple TV+ Unveils Trailer for New Animated Adventure My Brother the Minotaur
Apple TV+ is inviting families to step into a world where ancient myths collide with modern heart in the upcoming animated series My Brother the Minotaur. The streaming service recently pulled back the curtain on the show with a brand new trailer, offering a first look at the vibrant animation and high stakes journey that awaits viewers when the series makes its global debut on Friday, April 24.
Produced by the acclaimed animation house Cartoon Saloon alongside Dog Ears, the series follows the story of a young minotaur named Lorcan. Having been found and raised in the human world, Lorcan has spent his life trying to fit in despite his obvious differences. However, the mystery of his origins begins to pull at him, leading him and his fiercely loyal human brother, Charlie, on a quest to discover where he truly belongs.
The journey is far from a solo trek. Along the way, the brothers recruit a brave group of friends to help navigate a landscape filled with folklore and mystery. As Lorcan edges closer to fulfilling his destiny, the group must contend with dark forces that are determined to see the young minotaur fail. It is a story designed to resonate with anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, celebrating the idea that home is often found in the people who see you for who you really are.
The production brings together an impressive voice cast to breathe life into these characters. Rising stars Ely Solan and Billy Jenkins lead the way as Lorcan and Charlie, joined by the talents of Luciana Akpobaro and Billie Boullet. The series also features veteran performances from industry heavyweights including Michael Sheen, Brian Cox, Paul Kaye, and TNia Miller.
Created by Donal Mangan and directed by Maurice Joyce, the series is executive produced by Gerry Shirren and Fionnuala Deane. With Cartoon Saloon’s reputation for stunning visual storytelling, My Brother the Minotaur looks to be a standout addition to the Apple TV+ library this spring, offering a mix of mythic adventure and universal themes that aim to capture the imaginations of kids and parents alike.
