Discovering Evolupia

Discovering Evolupia is a 2017 American computer-animated miniseries produced by Universal Television Animation under its Gingo Animation label. Its story takes place in the titular ancient kingdom, where a dormant spell placed on its habitants by the immortal Cerramas (Jennifer Tilly) is concealed inside a chain of forest vines. Young tourists Caressa Watson (Kay Hanley)  and Al Messere (Devon Bostick) visit the kingdom, but while on their tour, Al unwittingly damages the chain, unleashing a mutant creature transformation spell on Evolupia's population which will be completed in three days unless the tourists can find and defeat Cerramas.

Originally planned as a theatrical film to be produced by Universal Animation Studios, Evolupia was decidedly split into an eight-part miniseries that ran on Gingo from February 6 to February 10, 2017. The series was met with generally positive from critics, many of whom praised its visuals, score, script, concept, and voice performances, most notably from Steve Zahn as Tygon Bellhouse, while others cited its weakness of plot. The series was released on DVD and Blu-ray on June 13, 2017.
