Miraculous™ – Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir is now in its fifth season, scoring top ratings in more than 120 countries around the globe across multiple traditional media outlets and streaming platforms; and now also an animated superhero blockbuster, Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir, The Movie, which will launch on Netflix on July 28 and theatrically in select countries. The theatrical roll-out will commence early July in France by SND and in Germany by StudioCanal, as well as China, Belgium, Switzerland, Poland & the Eastern Europe region, Russia, Greece, Turkey, and Israël. With broad appeal across age demographics, Miraculous has become a digital planetary craze with over 35 billion views on YouTube (authorized and user-generated content).

Wells is the proud licensee for the newly available Miraculous™ Ladybug strawberry-flavored, water-ice frozen facebar confection featuring Ladybug’s magical, spotted yoyo. The distinctive packaging highlights the bold, graphic, iconic image of the Ladybug character. The new Ladybug facebar, designed to replicate the character’s magic yoyo, has been welcomed by distributors and wholesalers anxious to take advantage of the popularity of the television show as well as the upcoming movie. The new strawberry-flavored facebars are now available on local ice cream trucks throughout the United States.
