Wonkybot Entertainment is a USA/Australian, award-winning content, publishing and production company creating, developing and distributing original IP based on the ever-expanding library of original characters, stories  and ideas created by award-winning writer/producer and company co-founder Stewart St John (Disney’s Seventeen Again, Power Rangers, Sabrina: The Animated Series).

St John’s producing partners and Wonkybot co-founders are Todd Fisher, a former Senior Producer at Disney, and Michael Plahuta, an attorney born and raised in Melbourne, Australia.  This unique and talented trio oversee all of Wonkybot’s stellar shows and IP. 

Wonkybot collaborates with major studios and networks to license and help build our growing catalogue into high value franchises across television, film, books, games and merchandise platforms.

The company was established in 2015 with an audio-first strategy, launching St John’s Tara Tremendous IP as an audio series that became a #1 smash-hit podcast on Apple iTunes.  Voiced by some of Australia’s most recognizable talent – Gina Liano (Real Housewives of Melbourne), Hannah Monson (Neighbors), Deborah Kennedy (A Place To Call Home) and Terrence Crawford (Creed III), Tara Tremendous has been listened to by millions of fans around the world.  The award-winning juggernaut earned a Parents Choice Gold Award, Kidscreen nom for Best Teen Podcast, and inspired a series of live musical concerts directed by St John and featuring Micky Dolenz, Broadway legend Annie Golden, and many stars of Broadway performing original songs composed by St John & Plahuta.

Tara Tremendous is currently set to launch a series of books from Simon & Schuster imprint Andrews McMeel, and is in development as a live-action feature film franchise.  

St John, known for his world-building, character creations and original music and songs, along with his producing partners Fisher and Plahuta, have positioned Wonkybot at the forefront of the next generation of kids and families looking for uplifting, positive and magical entertainment.  Other high-profile IP include the award-winning teen horror series Origins Unknown and upcoming Treacherous Things, supernatural Spooky Troop, supervillain comedy Dr. Epic & 1102, Tremendous Boy, The Owlsteins, and many more.

Wonkybot content is grouped into three major universes: Tremendous Universe (superheroes and sci-fi), Sinister Universe (mystery and horror), and Wonderverse (fantasy and kids).

Through our captivating characters, stories, podcasts, television and film IP, sound design, theme songs & music compositions we love to entertain our audiences across multiple platforms.
