 Founded by John Attanasio and Luisa Huang, veterans of DreamWorks, Disney, and Warner Bros., Toonstar has incorporated community-driven storytelling elements in each of its Web3 series to date, including “The Gimmicks,” “House of Chico,” and “Space Junk.” In “FORTUN3,” they take this collaborative storytelling model to a new level. 
 With each episode, the advancing storyline will influence corresponding chapters of the companion game. A.I. will power the development of original characters and shareable digital comic books based on token holders’ gameplay. Players will also have the opportunity for their characters to be picked up for a role in the animated series. 
 “Today’s entertainment consumers expect more than one-sided, passive entertainment. They want to participate in the storytelling and engage with other fans in a way that begins to resemble gaming models,” said John Attanasio, co-founder and CEO of Toonstar. “In addition to greater fan engagement, our interactive form of storytelling can serve as a model for Hollywood to uncover new entertainment franchises and unlock new revenue streams.” 
 Toonstar founders, along with Miller and Heder, will discuss the evolution and growing importance of audience participation in content development during their Comic-Con panel, “Audience is King,” on Friday, July 21st, at 1:45pm PT in Ballroom 20. 
 “Toonstar gave me the opportunity to join such an original project and a timely story playing a version of the greatest crypto villain of all time… Yes!” said T. J. Miller. “FORTUN3 is a groundbreaking way for fans to participate, enjoy, and actually be in the show. I can’t wait to see it blow people’s actual minds.” 
 FORTUN3, the animated series and companion game of the same name, will be released in Q4 of this year.
