Nickelodeon has unveiled new animated series Tim Rex in Space - its first global co-production with Channel 5's Milkshake!

With a score and songs by London-based Kyle Riabko and Steph McKeon (pictured), the series will follow a Tyrannosaurus Rex (T-Rex) named Tim, his big brother Tommy, little sister Tia, and triceratops bestie Kai as they tackle kid-shaped adventures with dino-sized solutions in space.

Tim Rex in Space is created and produced by Mint Copenhagen for Nickelodeon and Milkshake!, with animation studio, Jam Media. The series is produced by Josephine Jerris Margolis for Mint, directed by Sam Dransfield (Bossy Bear) with animation director Jess Patterson (Nova Jones), series designer/ art director Joshua Hogan and head writer Andy Potter (Sharkdog, Class Dismissed).

The show launches in 2025 on Nickelodeon channels in the U.S. and globally, as well as on Milkshake! in the U.K.
