"I'm excited about this opportunity and relationship with Apple and Sinking Ship," Dr. Jane Goodall commented. "The program 'Jane' spreads a message of hope and reminds children that the environment is something that we all have to be concerned about while also inspiring them and their parents to make a difference."
"Jane" will blend live-action and CGI and is from Sinking Ship Entertainment, the second Apple Original Series from the production company after "Ghostwriter."
Emmy Award winner J.J. Johnson ("Dino Dana," "Endlings," "Ghostwriter") serves as executive producer alongside Christin Simms, Blair Powers, Matt Bishop, and Andria Teather from the Jane Goodall Institute.
