The action-adventure from Warner Bros.’ digital studio Blue Ribbon Content and Amuse USA will feature Su-Metal, Yuimetal and Moametal as part of the warrior band Babymetal who will help save a magical world of heavy metal music as it comes under attack—and redefine the genre while they're at it.

The series will feature new live-action performances from the group, and though the release date has yet to be announced, Warner Bros. did say that the project is currently in development
