Bringing Malaysian Animated Characters to Life
The collaboration marks another milestone for Kisah Bawah Tanah, a homegrown animated property inspired by Southeast Asian folklore, as its characters make the transition into a physical entertainment experience.
Speaking at the launch, Spencer Lee, Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing & Public Relations at Resorts World Genting, said the collaboration supports the resort's efforts to develop Spookadilly as a homegrown entertainment intellectual property (IP).
"We are excited to bring Kisah Bawah Tanah to life at Resorts World Genting and create something that feels familiar, playful and uniquely Malaysian," he said.
"As we continue to develop Spookadilly as our own entertainment IP, this collaboration gives us an exciting opportunity to explore new characters, stories and experiences, while bringing together local storytelling and immersive entertainment in a way that families can enjoy together."
Hendra Wardi, co-creator of Kisah Bawah Tanah, also described the partnership as an important development for the animated property.
"Partnering with a world-class icon like Resorts World Genting just six months into Kisah Bawah Tanah's journey is an incredible milestone. Bringing together their decades of entertainment expertise with our fresh, playful energy just makes perfect sense," he said.
The collaboration offers fans an opportunity to engage with the characters beyond their original animated format, while introducing new audiences to Malaysian-inspired storytelling through an immersive attraction.
