Amazon Developing “Oaklandia” Animated Comedy With Snoop Dogg Which Should Have Plenty Of For Shizzle (Did I Do That Right?)
Snoop Dogg is everywhere. He’s on commercials for Tostitos and Corona, a multi-platinum music producer, and hopefully the star of a new animated comedy that he is also producing called Oaklandia. The Amazon joint is being made in conjunction with writer Daniel Dominguez (gen: Lock) and Chris Powell plus Vince Vaughn’s Wild West Picture Show Productions.
Not much else is known about the series, but the series from Amazon Studios is the latest in a number of adult animation projects the conglomerate has in the works which includes Fairfax, Undone, and Ricky & Cricket.
Our Take
Snoop Dogg’s an underrated actor in animation, my favorite role of his was the backdoor spin-off in Mike Tyson’s Mysteries, so I’m excited to see where this one goes.
