Israeli production company God’s Gang announced the addition of Mark Taylor, former Nickelodeon senior vice president, DreamWorks head of physical production and Sony Pictures Animation VP production to its advisory board.

God’s Gang, founded by Nimrod Avraham May, is the entertainment company behind a series that aims to promote peace, unity and shared values between people, regardless of their religious beliefs. The series brings together four extraordinary martial arts heroes from Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Judaism who go on hilarious adventures for audiences aged nine to 19. The 13-minute pilot has already gained huge momentum online, amassing over one million subscribers to their YouTube channel and more than three million views worldwide.

May added, “It gives me great joy to bring one of the finest producers of animated series in the world to the God’s Gang family. Mark’s invaluable industry experience will not only play a pivotal role in steering the commercial success of the series, but also further develop future episodes so we can continue to promote peace and unity around the world through our unique animated content.”
The God’s Gang production team includes director Ehud Landsberg (Transformers: Cyberverse, Vampirina) and writer Rob Kutner (five-time Emmy, Grammy, and Peabody Award winner; Conan O’Brien, The Daily Show, Angry Birds, Ben 10).
The series is created by Disney Channels former marketing executive Nimrod Avraham May, whose vision was brought to life by the team at Infinite Frameworks in Singapore.
