‘Deano’ Heads to Hulu, Disney+ and BBC One: Web Series Makes the Jump to Television with the Help of ‘Bluey’ Creator Joe Brumm

Deano will premiere in 2027 on Hulu in the U.S. and on Disney+ internationally, except in the UK where it will premiere on BBC iPlayer and BBC One before streaming on Disney+.

Synopsis: Deano is a spirited cheeky charmer of a boy, whose tough exterior coats a real heart of gold.

He is the most endearing feisty kid you will ever meet and is growing up in a ruthlessly tough neighborhood in a house that should be condemned.

He has no concept that the chips are stacked against him and embraces everyone equally, from the local teenage dropouts to the town police chief.

At the heart of the series is Deano’s friendship with Kit, his timid best mate from the wealthy side of town. Kit is blind to Deano’s circumstances and is drawn to his friend’s energy and fearless worldview.

Together, they walk face-first into an unfiltered world that’s leaking empathy by the hour; yet somehow, Deano still shines as a beacon of irreverent optimism, a reminder of how good life can feel.

Created by Dean Thomas and David Ferrier.

Bluey creator Joe Brumm will serve as the script editor and an executive producer.

Based on the web series Childish Deano.
