Rooster Teeth is coming back

6 February 2025 at 09:27

Rooster Teeth β€” the studio behind animated web series such as RWBY, Red vs. Blue, and Gen:Lock β€” seemed like it was shuttering for good last year. The company announced that it was winding down operations due to parent company Warner Bros. Discovery’s inability to find a party interested in buying the production outfit. But in an interesting turn of events, Rooster Teeth is now coming back under the leadership of one of its original co-founders.

On Wednesday, Rooster Teeth announced that it and many of its assets have been acquired by Box Canyon Productions, a company owned by Rooster Teeth co-founder Burnie Burns. In a statement about the acquisition, Rooster Teeth said that it plans to double down on its β€œfocus on innovation, community engagement, and the spirit of creativity,” and Burns said that he was excited to bring the company back to its roots.

β€œThe heart of this brand has always been its fans, and I look forward to writing a new chapter together,” Burns said.

It’s not entirely clear how many of Rooster Teeth’s remaining assets Box Canyon purchased from WBD. But Box Canyon announced that it has plans to launch a number of new projects in 2025 including β€œrenewed production of some of the platform’s classic shows,” a β€œreimagining” of Burns’ first film titled The Scheduled and Again, an all-new audio drama.
