Disney XD has ordered “MECH-X4” formerly known as “MTX!,” a new live-action sci-fi adventure comedy series centered on a heroic team of four young boys who take on the job of controlling a giant robot in order to protect their city from danger.
Production has begun on the new “MECH-X4” series in Vancouver for a fall 2016 premiere on Disney XD.
“This serialized live-action adventure saga is a new genre for Disney XD, and we’ve assembled a dream team in a cast and crew that commands this action-packed series, masterfully blending high-end visual effects with compelling mythology to bring ‘MECH-X4’ to life,” said Adam Bonnett, executive vice president, Original Programming, Disney Channels Worldwide.
The series stars newcomer Nathaniel James Potvin as Ryan Walker, a freshman at Bay City High who has technopathy. Technopathy is the amazing ability to control technology with your mind. Ryan’s talent mysteriously awakens MECH-X4, a giant 120-foot robot built by a mysterious genius to defend their town against impending doom. Ryan recruits his two best friends and his older brother to help him operate MECH-X4. Suddenly monsters start to sescend upon their city, the team must quickly learn to work together in order to pilot the robot that is their only hope for saving the town, and ultimately the world, from mass destruction.
Also starring alongside Potvin are Kamran Lucas as Ryan’s genius friend Harris and Pearce Joza (“Lab Rats”) as his quirky friend Spyder. Raymond Cham (“Teen Beach 2”) stars as Ryan’s older brother Mark.
The series was created by executive producer Steve Marmel (“Sonny with a Chance”). Anupam Nigam (“Defiance”) also serves as executive producer alongside co-executive producer and director Zach Lipovsky (“Dead Rising: Watchtower”). “MECH-X4” is a production of Bay City Productions, Ltd., a subsidiary of Omnifilm Entertainment, Ltd.
