Are you a fan of these comics? Then this news is sure to delight you: it has just been confirmed that there will be a Mafalda series on Netflix. Just as you read it, Mafalda and company will be the protagonists of a new animated project.
Through social networks, the streaming platform announced that we will soon be able to see a new animated series of Mafalda, which will be directed by Argentine director Juan José Campanella, who directed the Oscar-winning film El secreto de sus ojos.
when will the Mafalda series be released?
No further details of this series have been released at this time. The release date, as well as the format it will take, will be announced at a later date. It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time that Mafalda comics have been animated.
For example, in 1993, 104 episodes were produced, which were directed by Juan Padrón, according to information from Quino’s official website. On that occasion, each short film lasted about 1 minute.
Mafalda is a comic strip created by Joaquín Salvador Lavado (Quino) that was published between 1964 and 1973. The protagonist is a little girl of the same name, who makes a social critique and questions everything about the world she lives in, including gender roles.
Although it ceased publication more than 50 years ago, Mafalda and her friends are still very much alive. Now they are about to arrive again in an animated format.
