Blink Industries has officially introduced Ricky Gervais’ latest venture, a Netflix animated comedy titled Alley Cats, which is slated for release next year. This adult animated series comprises six episodes, each lasting approximately 15 minutes, and depicts a group of feral cats in Britain as they navigate the complexities of companionship and the peculiarities of daily life.

Ricky Gervais, renowned for his work as an Emmy and BAFTA award-winning creator, serves as both director and voice for the main character — described by him as a “fat, lazy, rude, opinionated creature with fangs.” Gervais humorously remarks that the role is “quite a stretch” from his own persona.

The production will be managed by Blink Industries, known for other successful projects such as Dead End: Paranormal Park and Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared. The animation style will feature 2D techniques, with Tang Heng, previously credited for work on Kung Fu Panda, overseeing production design. Executive production is handled by Gervais through his company Derek Productions, alongside Steven Hamilton Shaw, known for his contribution to Gnomeo & Juliet.

The impressive voice cast for Alley Cats includes frequent Gervais collaborators such as Tom Basden, Andrew Brooke, David Earl, Kerry Godliman, Jo Hartley, and Diane Morgan, along with newcomers Natalie Cassidy and Tony Way.
