Netflix Is Releasing an Animated Drag Queen Superhero Series & Our Bodies Are Ready
Retail workers by day, crime fighters by night!
What's better than a drag queen? A drag queen with superpowers, of course!
Earlier today, Netflix announced an upcoming animated series from Combo Studio in Brazil called Super Drags following the magical and hilarious hijinks of three local drag queens.
While the teaser doesn't give too much away, Brazillian website CosmoNerd summarized the series:
"During the day, Patrick, Donny and Ramon work in a department store with annoying customers and a picky boss. At night, they release their inner divas to become Lemon Chiffon, Cran's Sapphire and Crimson Scarlet: three incredibly fabulous Super Drags who have been recruited to gather the LGBT community and spread glitter in the world."
Chris Sanagustin, Netflix’s Director of Original International Content, is excited to bring the series to screens around the world.
"We are thrilled that our first Brazilian animation will present our audiences with the daring, scandalous and fabulous world of Super Drags!" he told CosmoNerd. "Netflix is fortunate to invest in great animation talent from Brazil, bringing the vibrant trait of Combo and the acidic mood of our producers to the beautiful and the canvases from every corner."
The five-episode series will be Netflix's first Brazillian animated original, with the premiere scheduled for later this year.
Watch the teaser below!
