Two siblings step straight out of their own bedtime story and into a stranger one, and the result is a family series with real teeth.

What is A Tale Dark & Grimm about?

Hansel and Gretel narrate their way clear of the version everyone already knows, wandering instead into a run of lesser-told tales collected by the Brothers Grimm. Each episode drops the pair into a fresh predicament — trickster relatives, cursed objects, and creatures that are funnier than they are frightening — while a wry narrating voice keeps commenting on just how strange the source material actually gets. The animation leans into exaggerated character design and quick sight gags, moving between adventure and comedy without settling fully into either.

About the cast

Andre Robinson and Raini Rodriguez voice Hansel and Gretel, joined by a supporting cast that includes Tom Hollander, Scott Adsit, Ron Funches, Erica Rhodes, and Eric Bauza, with Cari Kabinoff rounding out the principal voices across the season's episodes.

Context & significance

Adam Gidwitz, who created and directed the series, adapted it from his own book series of the same name, which built its reputation on restoring the sharper, odder edges that classic fairy-tale adaptations tend to sand down. The 2021 series, a Canada–United States co-production, follows that same instinct for television, aiming at family audiences who want fairy-tale material with more bite and a faster joke rate than the softened versions most children's animation reaches for. Each episode runs a brisk twenty-six minutes, short enough for a single sitting but long enough to fit a full detour into one of the Grimm brothers' stranger stories, with the genre mix of action, adventure, comedy, and fantasy giving the show room to shift tone from one segment to the next.
