MAX Unveils The First Look At New Animated Series, Young Love

MAX unveiled the opening sequence for their new series, Young Love, at San Diego Comic Con today, July 20. The new series is a continuation of the Oscar winning short, Hair Love, and it will premiere this Fall on MAX.

This new series is “centered around the relationship between an African American father, his daughter Zuri, and the most daunting task a father could ever come across – doing his daughter’s hair for the first time. Filled with comedy and heart, the all-new Max Original animated series Young Love is an honest look into the world of the Young family – including millennial parents Stephen and Angela, their daughter Zuri and her pet cat Rocky – as they juggle their careers, marriage, parenthood, social issues and multi-generational dynamics, all while striving to make a better life for themselves.”

We had the chance to sit in on the panel for this new series in Ballroom 20 today, and creator/Executive Producer, Matthew A. Cherry and Supervising Director, Mark Davis, spoke about the series and its dedication to family, Chicago, pursuing your dreams. With the likes of Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi, Issa Rae, Loretta Devine, Harry Lennix, Tamar Braxton and Brooke Monroe Conaway lending their voices to this creation, expect a big hit on MAX’s hands.
