Stan Lee and Hugh Hefner are collaborating on a new cartoon called “SuperBunnies.”
MTV has ordered an animated pilot for “Hef’s Superbunnies,” a collaboration between cartooon veteran Lee’s newly launched Pow! Entertainment and Playboy’s Alta Loma Entertainment division. Hefner’s name and likeness will be featured in the pilot, and he also might provide the voice of his cartoon alter ego.
Hefner said he sparked to the notion of being involved with an edgy, sexy animated series as soon as Lee, the mastermind behind such Marvel comic book legends as Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four, approached him with the “Superbunnies” concept.
