Studio 100 International has acquired the worldwide distribution rights to Chill Out, Zeus!, a new animated comedy-adventure series produced by Germany’s die film gmbh in co-production with ARD / HR and Spain’s COZ AIE. The 52 x 12-minute series will be presented to international buyers at this year’s MIPCOM 2026.

Targeting kids aged 6 – 12, Chill Out, Zeus! offers a fresh, humorous take on the timeless stories of Greek mythology, blending action, comedy and relatable family dynamics with contemporary storytelling. Inspired by the children’s book I, Zeus & the Olympic Gang (German title: Ich, Zeus und die Bande vom Olymp) by Frank Schwieger, the series introduces young audiences to the mythical gods and heroes of Ancient Greece in an entertaining and accessible way.

The story centers on Zeus, the mighty ruler of Olympus and Earth, whose legendary temper and unpredictable moods regularly plunge his heavenly kingdom into chaos. Alongside their own trials and adventures, his resourceful teenage children Aphrodite, Athena, Heracles and Hermes find themselves navigating the unpredictable world of Olympus, tackling impossible errands, unexpected challenges and the chaos of life with Zeus as their father.

Each episode begins with our young gods and Zeus on the verge of another emotional storm and the harmony of Olympus hanging in the balance.  What follows is a fast-paced adventure inspired by the rich world of Greek mythology, packed with humor, heart and larger than life characters.

Dorian Bühr, Head of Global Distribution at Studio 100 International, said, “Few stories have shaped global culture as profoundly as Greek mythology. Chill Out, Zeus! transforms these iconic tales into a modern animated comedy-adventure filled with humor, heart, and relatable family dynamics. With its universal appeal and distinctive creative vision, it is a standout addition to our portfolio, and we’re excited to introduce this exceptional series to buyers and partners at MIPCOM 2026.”
