MouseBelt Launches Ape Casting Call — Hollywood TV Show, Based On Bored Ape Yacht Club Characters
Today, we at MouseBelt–an ecosystem building the future of blockchain innovation and education–announced we are working to produce the first-ever feature TV show showcasing an all-Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) cast. This is only the latest investment in Hollywood-grade productions we’ve made. For the last 2 years, MouseBelt has been creating blockchain-related content with the aim of bringing the next billion users to crypto. Now, we’re inviting BAYC holders to participate by whitelisting their apes as cast members in upcoming productions.
After consistently executing on the world’s largest virtual conference (REIMAGINE), a #1 Hollywood docuseries (COINS), and their most recent stunt of employing the world’s first NFT character (Mutant Ape #452) to host their conference, we feel we are uniquely positioned to engage the growing BAYC community. This casting call is open to the first 3,000 apes owners who white list here (apetvshow.com) and on Feb. 12, we’ll randomly select 100 cast members out of the initial list of 3,000.
Joining Mousebelt on the project are:
- Orlando John (orlandojohn.com), a globally recognized talent manager representing several top names in Hollywood
- Meta Ape Studio (metaapestudios.com), a top creative agency focused on bringing BAYC and MAYC to life. Most recently the studio has gone viral with Metaverse fan art creations such as Paris Hilton and Jimmy Fallon (PH/JF), Martin Garrix and GQ (MG/GQ), and Post Malone and Jimmy Fallon (PM/JF)
We’re currently in talks with major distribution partners, A-list celebrities, and popular BAYC holders interested in having a cameo in the production.
“Bringing celebrity talent and animating NFTs on this scale is something that’s never been done before.” said Roshan Mirajkar, owner of Mutant Ape #452 and VP of Metaverse Media at Mousebelt. “This is an opportunity for millions of people to learn about a new cultural phenomenon through stories from the community members themselves.”
We’ll reveal more details such as committed A-list actors, NFT pre-sale, and a list of the 100 randomly selected apes who will be considered to be cast in the first-ever animated TV show featuring solely BAYC & MAYC NFTs over the coming weeks.
