The cast of Napoleon Dynamite is reuniting for an animated pilot titled Cyko Ko. The main cast of the 2004 classic comedy film consisted of Jon Heder, Tina Majorino, Efren Ramirez, and Jon Gries. Nearly two decades after the film's release, the cast will now reunite for the pilot episode of the animated series. 

Cyko Ko is an adaptation of the comic book series of the same name, written by Rob Feldman. The comic book features characters that break the fourth wall and has reportedly been nominated for the Ringo Awards.

The pilot episode, which is confirmed to run for 12 minutes, will be released exclusively through Blockchain Technology by the tech firm Replay’s Rewarded.TV streaming service. The creator of the comic book Feldman is on board as the showrunner and will produce the series through his Earworm productions. The NFT collection attached to the project known as Cyko Ko StarCards NFT will be released on 30 September.
