In February Patently Apple posted a report about Apple acquiring the animation films 'Luck' and 'Spellbound' from Skydance Animation along with a multi-year agreement promising more more feature films and TV series. Today Apple announced that another Skydance animation film is coming to Apple TV+ titled "Blush."

This latest film  follows the journey of a stranded horticulturist-astronaut’s chances for survival after he crash lands on a desolate dwarf planet. When an ethereal visitor arrives, the once-lone traveler discovers the joy in building a new life and realizes the universe has delivered astonishing salvation.

The inaugural Apple/Skydance short film is written and directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Joe Mateo ("Prep & Landing," and "Big Hero 6"), and shares the storyteller’s deeply personal journey of healing, hope and the undeniably human moments of being rescued by love.

Mateo developed "Blush" alongside the Skydance Animation team and the film is produced by Heather Schmidt Feng Yanu ("Toy Story," the "Cars" trilogy) and executive produced by Oscar® winner John Lasseter ("Toy Story," "Monsters, Inc.," and "Cars").

Skydance Animation is a division of David Ellison’s Skydance Media which is run by John Lasseter (Head of Animation) and Holly Edwards (President of Skydance Animation). For more read the full Apple press release.
