 After the initial sketches, here for you to admire is the rose as she will appear on TV. Although in the book she was something of a “difficult” character, here we find a rose impatiently waiting for letters from the Little Prince, who has set off in pursuit of the snake. …continue reading → |
 Feeling a certain sense of déjà vu? Yes, that is indeed the Little Prince all dressed in his finest, in the same clothes Saint-Exupéry depicted in the story.

Ask anyone to choose their favourite passage from The Little Prince, and the answer you often get is “the fox and his secret”. The fox who speaks to the Little Prince has left his mark on all of us, because he speaks to the Little Prince, of course, but also because he speaks to us about friendship.
Like the rose and the snake, the fox is one of the characters featuring in the Little Prince animated TV. We have an exclusive for you with this preparatory sketch. As you will see, this fox is different from the one in Saint-Exupéry’s watercolours. An original character that reminds us a little of the fennec Saint-Exupéry once tamed…
Until the final character is revealed in full colour and animation, we can tell you that the fox is something of a comic character, deadpan, mischievous, but as attached as ever to his Little Prince.
More exclusive news coming soon on the series that will be making headlines! |

The snake, that strange and enigmatic character in Saint-Exupéry’s tale, is back, too. In the animated TV series, the snake is the source of all the problems the Little Prince has to set right. He whispers wicked ideas into people’s ears and commands the dark thoughts of the beings we will be introducing you to shortly in the Little Prince series.
You will have noticed that the graphics for this particular character are extremely sophisticated. There is something of many different kinds of poisonous reptile in his appearance, including the viper, the cobra and the legendary plumed serpent of South America.
This complex, enigmatic character will be voiced by actor Guillaume Gallienne of the Comédie Française: French TV audiences will remember him for his masterly interpretations in Les Bonus de Guillaume. |
