And the strategy seems to be working: Hasbro saw a 76% revenue jump in its entertainment segment to US$327 million in Q3 2021, driven by the new film My Little Pony: A New Generation. In a bid to reach kids online as well as on TV and cinema screens, the company is also rolling out weekly YouTube series My Little Pony: Tell Your Tale, the first episode of which drops on April 7. A new five-minute ep of the 2D-animated series will be released each week after that on My Little Pony’s YouTube channel. Malaysian animation studio Lil Critter Workshop produced the 70 episodes, with Gretchen Mallorie working on scripts as head writer and story editor, and David Flack serving as creative producer. Tying into the new content, Hasbro is also gearing up to debut a toy line that will include mini figures, playsets and travel accessories when it hits US shelves in the coming months.
