Chris John Stars in Animated Myth Series

Silver Media Group and Indonesian boxing icon Chris John have signed an agreement to develop "Dragon's Dojo," a mobile-first vertical animated series. This initiative marks the debut of the ASERYA Asian Mythology Franchise, designed to bring rich Asian folklore and stories to a global audience.

The ASERYA Universe aims to create an interconnected digital space spanning animation, comics, and games. It will feature a blend of real-world personalities, young heroes, and mythical creatures drawn from various Asian cultures, with "Dragon's Dojo" being the first chapter.

"Dragon's Dojo" centers on ancient creatures appearing in the contemporary world, requiring heroes from different nations to unite against a looming threat. In the series, Chris John will lend his likeness to an animated character who serves as the head instructor at a martial arts academy. This academy guides young individuals facing adversity, with the narrative incorporating elements of personal struggle alongside the fight against mythological monsters.

This ambitious project is intended as a multi-platform franchise, with potential expansions into other media like comics and merchandise. The creators aim to leverage emerging technologies to tell expansive stories while retaining the cultural authenticity and emotional core of Indonesian mythology.

"Dragon's Dojo" is currently in development, with further production and release details to be announced. The collaboration brings together Silver Media Group's extensive IP portfolio and Koollab Studios' expertise in animation production workflows.
