The series is a “high-octane animated neo-noir”
According to Deadline, the series is being produced with Ambitious Entertainment, which is in discussions with domestic and international distributors and streamers. Tehk City has been described as a “high-octane animated neo-noir” that “unfolds in a brutal, near-future penal colony where every choice is life or death, chaos reigns and only the ruthless survive.”
“I just wanted to bring something new to animation that’s never been seen before, coming from the mind of a Black creator out of the projects of the Upper West Side of Manhattan,” said Ice-T in a written statement.
Industry veterans Ken Corben, Kirk Shaw, and Thomas Vitale are also on board as producers and EPs, with Rusty Cundeiff as a producer and Robert Rippberger as another EP.
“Tehk City is one of those rare projects that came together through the collaboration of an exceptional team,” Ambitious Entertainment’s Shaw said. “We’re creating a world only animation could capture, where morality is a luxury and the visual style is as fierce as the story itself.”
