Maison 4:3, Happy Camper Média and Radio-Canada are pleased to announce that the production of the animated feature film AGENT JEAN! : THE END OF WORLDS is launched! Created by Alex A., Agent Jean! celebrates its 15th anniversary this year! His universe will be brought to the big screen, in a feature film written by Alex A. and Robin Balzano, directed by Félix Larivière and co-produced by Renaud Sylvain and Félix Larivière for Happy Camper Média. Pier-Luc Funk will once again lend his voice to the character of Jean in this anticipated animated film, scheduled for release in fall 2027. The film will then be available on ICI TOU.TV EXTRA.
In 2011, with the launch of the first volume of the comic series L’Agent Jean!, published by Presses Aventure, a true love story was born between Alex A. and his admirers, young and old. Fifteen years later, Alex A. is now the author of an impressive number of comics. He skillfully pulls the strings of a large universe made up of interrelated stories which never cease to fascinate his readers and arouse in them the pleasure of reading. The comic book series alone has sold more than 1.7 million copies.
In 2018, Agent Jean! experienced its first television broadcast on Radio-Canada, and won 4 Gémeaux awards in the “Best animated series” category in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. Since fall 2025, L’Agent Jean! has its own digital streaming channel, available on ICI.TOU.TV. Broadcast nationally and internationally (Radio-Canada, CBC, Canal + Africa), the multiplatform animated series L’Agent Jean! is also available in podcasts, audiobooks and interactive games on the web.
Quotes
“The second I knew that the possibility of making an Agent Jean! was indeed there, the story happened by itself. And a chance… I hate creating otherwise! After years of taming the character and his universe in a TV series, everything was in place to create something that would live up to the ambitious ideas we can have. This will be an opportunity for fans to experience an Agent Jean! adventure, but this time, together. The book is a solitary experience. But cinema is a group experience! We experience a work together, with our friends, our family, with the potential to create unforgettable memories. » -Alex A., Creator of Agent Jean! and co-writer of AGENT JEAN! : THE END OF WORLDS
“Today’s announcement is particularly symbolic for us. Félix and I have been working for 10 years now, with Alex A. and Presses Aventure on L’Agent Jean!, to imagine and grow this universe, always with this slightly crazy dream of one day seeing it on the big screen. Well, mission accomplished, our favorite agent would say! As producers, this is a significant milestone and a real moment of celebration: the opportunity to spread our wings in a new format, since it is our very first film at Happy Camper Media. This project would never have seen the light of day without the valuable support of our partners, Radio-Canada and Éditions Presses Aventure, to whom we sincerely thank. » – Renaud Sylvain, President and executive producer at Happy Camper Media
