Nicktoons Africa To Premiere 'Munki And Trunk' On Monday 2nd April 2018
Nicktoons Africa, Nickelodeon Africa's top-performing animation channel, will start to premiere and show Munki and Trunk, a brand-new dialogue-free South African CG-animated TV series from Cape Town based animation studio Sunrise Productions, on Monday 2nd April 2018! The series follows best friends Munki, a bold, banana-juggling adventurer, and Trunk, a big-hearted and optimistic elephant. They do everything together - swinging, stomping and somersaulting as they explore their jungle world, hatching plans, solving problems, having fun and helping friends along the way.
Munki and Trunk (52 x 7’) is a tree-crashing, rock-smashing, water-splashing, fruit-mashing, knock-about comedy adventure for kids aged 4-7 years - and animals of all ages. Munki is a vine-swinging force of nature, hungry for bananas and adventure. Trunk is a big-hearted but crafty elephant who loves to nurture and play. Throughout the series, these unlikely best friends explore their world together, facing fears and helping friends along the way. No matter if they are facing rolling boulders, bouncing mushrooms or grumpy hedgehogs, they do it together giggling all the way. It’s the most fun you can have in the jungle!
Meet the Characters:
- Munki is full of energy, bravado and big ideas. This monkey is impulsive, agile and crazy about his best friend Trunk.
- Trunk: Trunk is a determined, enthusiastic optimist. She always sees the best in everyone, and every situation... however dire. This elephant's greatest joy is in helping, supporting and playing with her jungle friends.
- Tallbert, a awkward oddball giraffe who is all heart and four left hooves. Tallbert’s always eager to be included in any game - being around others helps to soothe his general, all-consuming anxiety.
- Humph: Humph has prickles on the inside and the outside. He’s the cranky old curmudgeon hedgehog whose door kids dare each other to knock on, whose garden swallows up stray balls, whose pristine lawn is an obsessively guarded paradise.
- Rocky: Rocky may be a rhinoceros, but he's also the jungle’s two tonne puppy - a stick-chasing, tail-wagging tornado of enthusiasm.
- Buzby: In a hive of dutiful, identical drones, Buzby is the odd-bee-out – much to the despair of his rules and routine obsessed Sergeant Major.
- Ribbert: Why go off adventuring, when you can lay back on a lily-pad, letting life float by? Ribbert is a frog of leisure, a relaxed loner who likes the finer things.
- Baby: This adorable ball of anarchy doesn’t know the meaning of impossible. A fearless toddler who giggles in the face of danger, Baby Ostrich is all curiosity and fun. Nobody can put this baby in the corner!
- Mama: Mama knows best! The calm, caring ‘Kanga’ of the jungle, this matriarch is always there with a word of encouragement, or to take the jungle crew under her parental protective wing.
- Hue: The mysterious, silent watcher of the jungle. Hue is everywhere and nowhere, popping up in every episode, if only for a moment. This chameleon moves slowly, and is slow to anger.
- Ray: Ray is a sleepy little sweetheart, a six-year old firefly with a shiny disposition - that is, unless you wake him up from his nap!
