Netflix will be unleashing Cannon Buster this August, as the streaming giant continues to expand its anime line-up.
The series follows the adventures and exploits of S.A.M, a high-end friendship droid who’s joined by a quirky, discarded maintenance robot and a brash, deadly fugitive. Together, the unlikely trio embarks on an unforgettable journey in a fantastic and dangerous world in search of S.A.M’s best friend, the heir to a kingdom under siege.
The series hails from creator, director, and executive producer LeSean Thomas. Originally from the South Bronx, Thomas now lives in Meguro, Tokyo, Japan, where he works as a television animation producer and director. His most recent project is Crunchyroll’s anime series Children of Ether. LeSean Thomas worked on the Adult Swim show The Boondocks which was nominated for an NAACP image award and won an honorary Peabody Award. He also worked as a television animation artist and producer for Cartoon Network, Sony, Warner Brothers and Nickelodeon.
Cannon Busters will launch globally on Netflix on 15th August 2019.
Cannon Busters is available on Netflix UK, as part of an £9.99 monthly subscription.
