Nickelodeon has unveiled an out-of-this-world first look at the network's upcoming brand new animated preschool series, Tim Rex in Space!
Tim Rex in Space follows a Tyrannosaurus Rex (T-Rex) named Tim, his big brother Tommy, little sister Tia and triceratops bestie Kai as they tackle kid-shaped adventures with dino-sized solutions in space. Tim and his family live in a unique world comprised of a cluster of asteroids that make up the town of Rumbleton. This intergalactic environment is a quintessential 21st century suburban town, with each asteroid hosting family homes, cafés, shops, parks, and even a beach. All asteroids are connected by a network of slides, ziplines and trampolines, but can also easily be reached on a quick rocket ride.
In this super sneak peek, join Tim Rex in this out-of-this-world musical adventure as the dinosaur family catches a shooting star!
The series features: Cassian Swan-Mckee as Tim; Ace Gil as Tommy; Hope Delaney as Tia; and Jamie Smart as Kai. The voice cast also includes Stephen Alan Yorke, Nim Miller, Sophia Nomvete, Jessica Robinson, Alex Carter and Lorraine Bruce.
Created with a global audience in mind, the series blends humor, suspense, and everyday themes that kids can relate to. The 60×7’ series is set to premiere on Nickelodeon’s platforms worldwide and on Paramount-owned Channel 5 in the UK as part of its Milkshake! kids strand later this year.
