News Warrior Cats Warrior Cats Gets Animated Series Adaptation With Ms. Marvel Showrunner on Board The series also has a Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia alum in the director’s chair By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on June 1, 2026 Comment 0 Share New Share If you were a young person in the early 2000s (or later… or know someone in that age bracket), odds are good you’re familiar with the Warrior Cat books. The novels, of which there are dozens, chronicle the emotional and geopolitical travails of different clans of feral cats. Think Game of Thrones but for kids, and talking feral housecats rather than humans. I can personally say they’re engaging reads, and the books have sold 90 million copies, been translated into 38 languages, and have fomented fan content that’s garnered over 50 million YouTube views and 3 billion TikTok views per month, according to Coolabi, which owns the IP. The books’ popularity (they’ve been written by multiple authors under the nom de plume Erin Hunter) has unsurprisingly resulted in attempts to adapt the series to the screen. Back in 2016, there was an effort to make a feature film in the Warrior Cat world, which sadly fell to the wayside. Today, however, The Hollywood Reporter broke the news that Coolabi, along with Tencent Video, is developing an animated Warrior Cat series, with What If…? and Ms. Marvel showrunner A.C. Bradley on board and Rodrigo Blaas (Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia) directing. The show will focus on the first Warrior Cat book series: Warrior Cats: The Prophecies Begin. “We’re excited to partner with Coolabi on Warrior Cats, a franchise that embodies the future of global storytelling,” Tina Ma, Co-President & COO of Tencent Video said in a statement. “Together we’re bringing the beloved Warrior Cats world to new platforms and markets in a way that feels both familiar and fresh, creating an animated series designed to captivate existing fans and win new ones.” The animated series will also roll out with a bunch of toy tie-ins, so get ready for a lot of Warrior Cats in your future, although the exact date for the premiere of the show remains unknown.
