Report: Trill League Lives! BET+ Grabs Animated Adaptation For Development

Three years ago, Trill League was ordered to series at Quibi, the short-lived quarter-hour streaming service that didn’t make it a year. Then, earlier this year, we reported that producer Anthony Piper was thinking about abandoning the project altogether and focus his efforts elsewhere. Now, Deadline is reporting that BET+ is now developing the animated series with a new co-writer for Piper in Leann Bowen.

This is huge news, and GREAT news. 50 Cent’s G-Unit television is still on board as a producer for the animated superhero series that follows teenagers dealing with teenage problems as they battle bad guys of the social paradigm. Anthony Piper was a longtime producer for series like Axe Cop and Major Lazer for FXX.
