Zerocalcare returns to Netflix with Due Spicci, a new animated series arriving in 2026.
The Roman cartoonist announced the project during Lucca Comics & Games with a special event in Piazza San Michele, where the audience took part in an interactive reveal featuring a huge installation of the Armadillo, his iconic alter ego.
Zerocalcare writes and directs the series, produced by Movimenti Production — part of Banijay Kids & Family — in collaboration with BAO Publishing. Once again, Valerio Mastandrea lends his voice to the Armadillo, the protagonist’s sharp and ironic conscience.
After Tear Along the Dotted Line and This World Can’t Tear Me Down, Zerocalcare renews his collaboration with Netflix. With his blend of humor, introspection, and social critique, the artist further strengthens his role as a leading voice in Italian animation.
