    Webtoon and Warner Bros. Animation Reveal Four More Webcomics
    in Development as Animated Titles
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Webtoon Entertainment and Warner Bros. Animation announced four new
    animated titles based on popular Webtoon webcomics that are in
    development as part of their strategic partnership.

    The companies first announced their collaboration last fall, with
    an agreement to co-produce 10 fan-favorite Webtoon webcomics for
    global distribution spanning genres including romance, fantasy,
    action and comedy.

    The four additional webcomics set to be adapted as animated titles
    are: "The Wolf & Red Riding Hood" by XUANN; "Vampire Family" by
    unfins; "Sable Curse" by Little Melon"; and "Snow and Briar
    (And The Mirror of Seven Sins)" by M. Nires. (Read the descriptions
    below.)

    Those join the slate of previously announced Webtoon-Warner Bros.
    Animation projects: "Down to Earth" by Pookie Senpai; "The Stellar
    Swordmaster" by Hong Dae Ui, juno, and Q10; and "Hardcore Leveling
    Warrior" by Sehoon Kim.

    Webtoon Entertainment CFO David J. Lee and Warner Bros. Animation
    president Sam Register shared the news Thursday during a panel at
    Web Summit Vancouver 2026.

    The Webtoon-Warner Bros. Animation co-productions could be films or
    series; the formats for each one have yet to be revealed. No
    release dates have been set yet for the projects. The creators of
    the original Webtoon webcomics own the intellectual property and,
    under their agreements with the company, will receive a share of
    revenue generated from the animation projects.


    Here are the descriptions of the four new titles in development:

    - The Wolf & Red Riding Hood by XUANN
    High school student Anna wakes up one day to find that she's
    super hairy, incredibly strong, craves meat all the time...
    and then she grows ears and a tail. Can she figure out how to
    stop herself from becoming a werewolf before the full moon?

    - Vampire Family by unfins
    Natalia, a vampire desperate for a normal life, finally gets
    to go to school and sets her sights on befriending her
    seatmate, Evangelo. As she tries to navigate friendship in the
    human world, she discovers he's not your typical student
    either.

    - Sable Curse by Little Melon
    Terron is cursed to die at 19 unless she can find a way to
    break the spell. Her chance may come when her family escapes
    society and stays at a magical estate, where she uncovers
    secrets among its wealthy guests that could hold the key to
    lifting her deadly curse.

    - Snow and Briar (And The Mirror of Seven Sins) by M. Nires
    Prince Snow, the fairest in the land, is married off to the
    towering Princess Briar by his scheming stepmother, who
    desperately wants him gone. Is Princess Briar just infatuated
    with him like everyone else, or does she have secrets of her
    own?
