MANGA FEVER: French "Cat's Eyes" Remake Conquers Youth & Goes Global!

The French live-action remake of the classic "Cat's Eyes" manga is taking the world by storm! This adaptation of Tsukasa Hojo's beloved series snagged a massive 46% of France's 15-to-24 audience on TF1. That's a shocker, even for its distributors, who called the numbers "totally unexpected."

Variety reports that Rodolphe Buet, StudioTF1's chief distribution officer, is behind this massive international rollout. It seems like the world can't get enough of these feline heroines, proving that some stories are truly universal, no matter where they originate!
