DeAPlaneta Entertainment will take part in the upcoming American Film Market (November 11–16), where it will showcase its most recent projects to partners and clients, including the much-anticipated new feature film inspired by the adventures of "Bernard," the most accident-prone hero of all.

Earlier this year, DeAPlaneta and Alpha Group announced an alliance to further expand and boost the Bernard brand worldwide. The IP originates from the popular animated series centered on a bumbling yet endearing polar bear, notable for having no dialogue. DeAPlaneta Entertainment will oversee the rights to Bernard-related productions developed by BRB Internacional across Western territories, along with new seasons and spin-offs created around the franchise.

Helmed by Toni Garcia (Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds) and produced by DeAPlaneta Entertainment, the upcoming film narrates the meeting between the beloved bear and an extraterrestrial being who grants him extraordinary superpowers. Yet, instead of turning him into the planet’s ultimate protector, these powers only make his life more chaotic, pushing him to juggle a double identity as both a food delivery driver and the clumsiest superhero in the cosmos. Alpha Group retains the film’s rights in China, while Luminescence Films will work exclusively with DeAPlaneta on global sales.

Carlos Biern, Content and Media Sales Director at DeAPlaneta Kids & Family, commented: “The premiere of the teaser and the first images of our new theatrical release in 2027 is the cherry on the top that culminates our 25th anniversary. It also marks the completion of the first step in our commitment to quality family entertainment, starring our best-known characters in a medium as familiar as cinema.”

“We are very excited to bring such an esteemed, popular and internationally recognisable brand to a global audience. Tens of Millions of kids around the world have grown up watching our unique bear and his adventures. We expect very strong response from the distributors, platforms and network,” added Juraj Barabas, Managing Director of Luminescence.
