Amazon Studios is moving forward with the development of a new animated comedy series titled "Funny Business," spearheaded by the writing duo Will and Aaron Eisenberg. The project stems from an original pitch successfully sold to the streaming platform by the brothers, who are set to write and executive produce the series.
While specific plot details remain under wraps, the title suggests a venture into the chaotic and humorous inner workings of a particular industry or professional world. Animated projects have become a significant and competitive area for streaming services, offering creative freedom and broad audience appeal. The involvement of the Eisenbergs, who have built their careers on sharp, character-driven comedy, signals a series aiming for both wit and heart.
The deal highlights Amazon's continued investment in original animated content for its Prime Video service, building a diverse slate that complements its live-action offerings. The industry will be watching for further announcements regarding voice talent, animation style, and a targeted release window as "Funny Business" progresses from development into production.
