Adness Entertainment has finalized a broadcast licensing deal with TV Globo in Brazil for the live-action franchise, KAMEN RIDER DRAGON KNIGHT. The series, which follows the adventures of Kit Taylor as he journeys to find his missing father, will debut in the Fall 2009 television season.

KAMEN RIDER DRAGON KNIGHT was produced by Adness Entertainment in high definition with fast-paced action sequences and stunning CGI special effects. The series follows the heroic adventures of teenager Kit Taylor, who discovers a mysterious deck of Advent Cards that grant him the power to transform into an ancient armored warrior called a Kamen Rider. He joins a team of 12 other Riders, who along with their corresponding Advent Beasts, must battle the renegade warlord General Xaviax and his army in both the real world and an alternate reality called Ventara, or Mirror World.

KAMEN RIDER DRAGON KNIGHT is based on the original series, “Kamen Rider Ryuki,” produced by Toei Company and aired in Japan in 2002. “Kamen Rider” written by Shotaro Ishinomori, is the most popular and successful live- action series for kids in Japan of all time. First introduced in Japan in 1971, it is still a top rated show after 37 years and counting. It has spawned an unprecedented number of television and theatrical sequels.
