September 19, 2018 \/\u00a0Mercedes Milligan<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>On NBC\u2019s\u00a0Today Show<\/em>\u00a0on Wednesday, Savannah Guthrie and Drew Barrymore announced that Atomic Cartoons (a Thunderbird Company) has optioned the rights to develop and produce an animated TV series based on Guthrie and Allison Oppenheim\u2019s No. 1\u00a0New York Times<\/em>\u00a0Best Selling book series\u00a0Princesses Wear Pants<\/em>. The second book,\u00a0Princesses Save the World<\/em>, was released Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Guthrie and Oppenheim will serve as series creators and executive producers, with Barrymore and Flower Films to executive produce. Thunderbird CEO Jennifer McCarron and Matthew Berkowitz will serve as executive producers on behalf of Atomic Cartoons.The animated series will follow the books by showing young girls that they can be pink and sparky and strong at the same time. The show will follows the wide-ranging adventures of the thoughtful, courageous young Princess Penelope Pineapple and her friends, and encourage children to be brave, ambitious and unafraid to make a difference in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the things that I\u2019m hoping we can exemplify is that women working together can accomplish great things. I love the idea of girls helping girls, girls cooperating, [and] not competing. Nothing is just a small little kid book anymore, [and] these are important conversations about \u2018what is womanhood?\u2019 What does it mean to be a strong young woman?\u201d said Guthrie to Barrymore during the conversation. \u201cWe\u2019re teamed up with the studio Atomic Cartoons [and] It\u2019s really fun to try to develop [this] young lady. In some ways it\u2019s like the girl I\u2019m trying to raise is the girl I\u2019m trying to portray with Penelope, [who] is a good-hearted, kind, moral, wholesome, [and] strong.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe fell in love with the books, and especially the inspirational character of Princess Penelope, and then we fell even deeper in love with the idea of working with Savannah, Allison and Drew \u2013 it\u2019s a dream project,\u201d said McCarron. \u201cPersonally, as a mother, I am proud that Atomic has the opportunity to produce this series to further share Penelope\u2019s empowering message \u2013 that you can be pink and sparkly, but also a strong leader who gets things done.\u201d<\/p>\n
