The Unicorn Academy series is adapted from The New York Times bestselling books originated and published by Nosy Crow, written by Julie Sykes.

Spin Master’s new, fantasy-adventure children’s franchise, Unicorn Academy, is now available to watch, with a 72-minute movie premiere event and eight 22-minute episodes premiering globally on Netflix in 30 languages today (Thursday 2nd November).

Spin Master Entertainment’s latest streaming offering ventures into the fantasy-adventure world of unicorns. Unicorn Academy is the boarding school of every kid’s dreams. Located on Unicorn Island, audiences will follow Sophia Mendoza and the rest of her class as they bond with a unicorn to unlock their magical powers; only then can they learn to become revered protectors of the island and its magic – all whilst balancing classwork and navigating new friendships.

Jennifer Dodge, president of Entertainment at Spin Master said: “The world of Unicorn Academy is officially unlocked and ready to welcome audiences in to meet the students as they discover their destinies as Unicorn Riders and explore the unbreakable bonds with their unicorns.”

“Kids are going to fall in love with the magical series, which is just the tip of the iceberg. We are building out a complete franchise ecosystem, that will dive deeper into the world of unicorns through ancillary content, toy play and consumer products for fans.”

The show also features an epic soundtrack including songs ‘Follow Your Heart’ and ‘Lights Out’, which are available to download now.
