PARISโข -โค Following a 10-year anniversary celebration at the Eiffel Tower coinciding with Mipcom, “Miraculous” is moving โforward with a feature film, bringing on John Cohen andโ Matt Roller to join Miraculous Corpโค for the project. The โdeclarationโ was made by Pierre-Antoine Capton, โfounder of โคMiraculous Corp, who hosted the โevent.
The animated series, which debuted 15 years ago, โคcenters on a female superhero and has expanded beyond television into toys, books, fashion, games, and live events.
