Jorge R. Gutierrez Teases 'El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera' Revival

Could El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera be making a comeback?


Co-created by husband-and-wife team Jorge R. Gutierrez (The Book of Life) and Sandra Equihua (Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!) and based on Jorge's experiences growing up in Mexico City, El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera, described as a folk art-inspired animated comedy with a spaghetti western twist follows 13-year-old Manny (voiced by Alanna Ubach, Welcome to the Wayne) who must choose whether to use his superpowers as El Tigre for good or evil.

Manny is a well-meaning kid who lives with his father and grandfather in Miracle City, an urban melting pot full of colorful heroes and nefarious villains. A spin of his mystical belt buckle transforms him into the brave and powerful masked warrior, El Tigre. As El Tigre, he has to choose whether to become a great superhero, like his father, Rodolpho and his alter ego White Pantera (voiced by Eric Bauza, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Loud House, The Casagrandes) or a feared super-villain like his grandfather, Granpapi and his alter ego Puma Loco (voiced by Carlos Alazraqui, Rocko's Modern Life). Manny struggles with the daily choice of which super-power he will master because being good is good... but being bad is fun.

El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera premiered on Nickelodeon on March 3, 2007 and ran for 26 episodes until September 13, 2008, winning two Emmy Awards along the way. The storylines draw from the popular Latino telenovelas with exaggerated comedic situations and outrageous recurring characters.

Even though the show concluded after only one season, it's still a firm favorite among fans, and even though the last episode premiered over a decade ago, it looks like we could once again see Manny embark on more new adventures - although we may have to wait a bit!

Replying to a fan on Twitter, Gutierrez revealed:

"One day we’ll get to do more El Tigre but not for a long while since we’re cooking up a lot of new dishes at Netflix Animation. But El Tigre will roar once more, I promise."

Gutierrez followed up his tweet by saying:

"THIS I SWEAR!!!"
