The first series from Activision Blizzard Studios, Skylanders Academy is being produced under supervision of showrunner Eric Rogers (“Futurama”), executive produced by Emmy award-winning producer Sander Schwartz (“The Batman,” “The Aquabats! Super Show!” and “Justice League: The New Frontier”), and animated by acclaimed studio TeamTO. Co-Presidents Stacey Sher and Nick van Dyk lead Activision Blizzard Studios, which was founded last year to bring Activision Blizzard properties to film and television.
