Nickelodeon USA's all-new "Miraculous" website, nick.com/miraculous currently features information about the brand-new animated show, character bios for Marinette, Adrien, Tikki, Plagg and Hawk Moth, and two super sneak peeks from the all-new series!
Combining action-packed adventure with superhero elements, "Miraculous Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir" is a 3D, CGI-animated sitcom that follows two junior high students, Marinette and Adrien, chosen to save Paris from the evil doings of a mysterious super-villain. The storylines and adventures are rich with friends, family, fun, secret identity, transformation, villains, fashion, creativity and more, all within the spectacular backdrop of Paris.
Marinette is the sweetest girl in Paris. With a big crush on a boy at school, a big dream of becoming a fashion designer, and a big problem with being totally awkward, she's just your average teenage girl, except, she's also the crime fighting superhero, Ladybug!
Becoming Ladybug is a complicated process! First, Marinette needs a "Kwami", a tiny magical assistant (hers is named Tikki). She also needs a "Miraculous", a magical accessory (hers is a pair of earrings). Tikki uses the Miraculous to transform Marinette and gain the powers of speed, strength, agility and a clear mind. But her Ladybug super powers only work for a limited time!
When Hawk Moth uses his mind-controlling, moth-like creatures called Akuma to turn people into baddies, it's up to Ladybug to capture them and save the day! Well, she gets a little help from her superhero friend, Cat Noir... but she insists she doesn't need him. If only she knew Cat Noir's true identity – her crush, Adrien! As secret identity superheroes Ladybug and Cat Noir, Marinette and Adrien must balance the crazy antics of normal teen life while stopping weekly baddies deployed by Hawk Moth to steal their powers and take over the world.
Will Ladybug and Cat Noir be able to balance their double lives and keep Paris safe? Will they ever find out each other's true identity, or who's behind Hawk Moth's mask? Until then – there's a whole city of baddies to defeat... SPOTS ON, CLAWS OUT!
Based on an original concept by Zag, the 26-episode series (a co-production between Zag, Method Animation, Toei Animation and SamG, with the participation of TF1, Disney Channel EMEA, SK Broadband and AB droits audiovisuels).
