Apple TV+ announced "El Deafo," a charming and poignant three-part animated series for kids and families. Based on the #1 New York Times Bestselling and Newbery Honor Winning graphic memoir, all episodes of “El Deafo” will premiere on Apple TV+ Friday, January 7, 2021.
“El Deafo” follows insightful young Cece (voiced by Lexi Finigan, who is also deaf) as she loses her hearing and finds her inner superhero. Going to school and making new friends can be tough. Having to do both while wearing a bulky hearing aid on your chest? That takes superpowers! With a little help from her superhero alter ego, El Deafo, Cece learns to embrace what makes her extraordinary.
The Apple Original series is executive produced and written by Cece Bell and Will McRobb (“The Adventures of Pete & Pete," "Harriet the Spy”). Bell also narrates the series. “El Deafo” is co-executive produced by Claire Finn for Lighthouse Studios Ireland and directed by Gilly Fogg ("Bob the Builder"), with Mike Andrews as composer and featuring original music by Katie Crutchfield of Waxahatchee.
Waxahatchee’s energetic “El Deafo” soundtrack will be released on Friday, January 7 alongside the series, and is now available to pre-order. The single “Tomorrow” is currently available as a stream download here.
