Rayman & les Moldies
Rayman & les Moldies is an upcoming Rayman-themed TV show. The series will be a 3D-animated comedy-adventure for ages 6 to 10; the 52 x 11-minute series will be produced in-house.[1]
The TV show, untitled as of then, was announced on October 10 2019[2] following the success of Rabbids Invasion. A single piece of concept art was released, showing four creatures who appear to be inspired by the design of the Incrediballs.
The name Rayman & les Moldies was released on March 31 2022 along with an additional piece of concept art showing the latest design for Rayman and five of the Moldies.[3]
On June 19, 2023, Emmanuelle Leleu and Julien Hazebroucq, the animation directors working on the project, confirmed on Instagram that the series was never greenlighted, and shared concept art for various characters they had designed for the show.[4]

This tv serie has -unfortunately- never been green lighted, but still we had a great time with the team, and wanted to share the adventure. Let’s start with the beginning, when the idea was to imagine a world around « The Incrediballs »: a Rayman’s license 🌳 After a few weeks of brainstorming, the project took a turn and Ubisoft asked us to imagine new characters, still coming from the world of Rayman. That said, we started to think about the good buddies and the bad guys, and the whole concept started to emerge :-) At this time we were both working as designers and storytellers (e & j). »
