Tricon will produce and distribute the feature-length doc, which looks into the theft of a pair of ruby slippers used in The Wizard of Oz.
The new animated comedy was commissioned by Disney XD EMEA and Teletoon Canada.
During an investors presentation, Corus Entertainment COO Doug Murphy said the company will focus on developing and owning more of its unscripted factual content.
The new series from Tricon, slated to air this fall, builds on the channel’s success with The Next Star.
The former eOne exec will spearhead a charge into animation and scripted programming after a focus on reality and event series.
Tricon secured international sales for five series, including Sanctuary (pictured), while 9 Story’s Wild Kratts sold to Germany, and eOne picked up worldwide distribution rights to Eye of the Hurricane.
