Amazon Prime viewers can now stream or download the hit animated short film.
Magic Light Pictures has rolled out its latest animated short film – Zog – on Amazon Prime in the US.
The release marks the US broadcast premiere for the International Emmy-nominated Zog, which has already proved popular internationally with a raft of sales to major broadcasters across Europe, Asia and Australia.
Zog – which is based on the book by Julia Donaldson – originally premiered in the UK on BBC One on Christmas Day 2018 and was the fourth-highest rated programme on the day, achieving 8.8m viewers (including repeat) and the highest share of any programme in the week 24-30 December [source: Broadcast].
The sequel – Zog and the Flying Doctors – has recently been announced as the Christmas 2020 collaboration between Magic Light and BBC One.
“Zog proved a great festive favourite with UK viewers last Christmas, and we’re sure that American audiences will take him to their hearts as well,” said Michael Rose, co-founder of Magic Light Pictures. “It’s a wonderful, empowering story of friendship and adventure that is perfect family viewing for the holiday season.”
