According to Deadline, Lionsgate has successfully acquired the film rights to Ubisoft’s popular video game franchise called Rabbids, which is a spinoff game from the long-running fantasy video game Rayman.
Rabbids or also known as Raving Rabbids are described as wild rabbit-like alien creatures, who are experts at creating havoc and mischief.
In 2013, Ubisoft Motion Pictures has also produced an animated series centered on the video game characters titled Rabbid Invasion.
Due to their popularity, a solo Rabbids video game franchise, consisting mainly of party video games, was established and has sold over 15 million units since its launch.
