LOS ANGELES — Developing an animated show takes time. When Tze Chun pitched his "Gremlins" prequel series about five years ago, it was for an "unnamed Warner streaming service."
"I think it was [one of] the first things that they bought, so that gives you an idea of how long we've been working on this," said Chun, showrunner and executive producer of the "Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai," which premiered last month on Max.
Even that was "very quick in animation time," added executive producer Brendan Hay.
