Lupo The Butcher Animated Series In Development With Netflix
Danny Antonucci, creator of such series as Ed, Edd n Eddy, Cartoon Sushi, and MTV’s The Brothers Grunt is in development for an animated series adaptation of Lupo the Butcher for Netflix. Lupo the Butcher is a one-time animated short featuring a guy named Lupo that goes nuts with a butcher.
No word yet on potential cast but it is assumed that his studio a.k.a. Cartoon would produce the series.
Our Take
Danny is one of the most underrated names in adult animation history and has influenced countless other producers in their works, so here’s hoping this one comes true.
Update 8/20: Netflix has passed on the series due to creative differences with Danny.

"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
