Netflix is ready to take viewers on a magical mystery tour with the upcoming animated series Beat Bugs, which will feature new spins on beloved Beatles classics courtesy of contemporary artists.
The new teaser for the show features Vedder’s take on “Magical Mystery Tour,” as well as a look at the series’ stars Jay, Kumi, Crick, Buzz, and Walter on their adventures in a suburban backyard.
The use of The Beatles’ songs comes courtesy of Grace: A Storytelling Company, which acquired the rights to The Beatles’ music in 2014.
Beat Bugs comes from Grace’s Josh Wakely, along with production companies Thunderbird and Beyond Screen Productions.
“Bringing Beat Bugs to life on Netflix (NFLX) and having a platform to re-imagine this universally acclaimed music for families around the world is an exhilarating and rewarding experience,” Wakely said in a statement alongside the series’ teaser.
Beat Bugs will arrive this summer. Take a first look above.
