Netflix is working on an animated film about iconic virtual band Gorillaz with frontman Damon Albarn confirming the project in a recent interview with Apple Music (via Collider).
The band was created in 1998 by singer-songwriter Albarn and artist Jamie Hewlett and is famously comprised of animated members and a fictional universe presented through music videos.
Of the new project, which Netflix hasn’t officially announced as yet, Albarn says:
“I’m at Netflix because we’re making a full-length Gorillaz film with Netflix. We’re having a writing session in Malibu this afternoon. It’s really exciting to do that. It’s something we’ve been wanting to do for a very long time. It’s been through so many incarnations…this Gorillaz doing a movie. Honestly.”
Gorillaz released their most recent album in October of last year.
