Space Ranger Fred is expanding into the United States as creator Matt Newnham establishes a formal US presence to develop animation, gaming, and ed tech opportunities. The brand aims to build partnerships, attract investment, and reach US families with uplifting, imaginative content.
-- Space Ranger Fred, the imaginative children’s franchise that has been steadily growing its global audience, has taken a major step toward expanding in the United States with the announcement that creator Matt Newnham has formally incorporated his operations in the country. The move signals the start of a focused strategy to bring the brand into mainstream US entertainment, education, and media.
Known for its uplifting stories, colorful characters, and emphasis on courage, problem solving, and friendship, Space Ranger Fred has gained an enthusiastic following among young readers internationally. With growing interest from broadcasters and early discussions with potential production partners, the United States has become a central priority for taking the franchise to its next phase.
By incorporating in the US, the brand now has a formal base for developing partnerships, attracting investment, and expanding into new formats including animation, video games, and educational technology. Pennsylvania-based CEO and partner Dana Ellis has been instrumental in building early momentum behind the scenes and will lead local operations as plans accelerate.
Author and founder Matt Newnham said, “Space Ranger Fred has always been imagined as more than a series of books. It is a full universe built on values and adventure that can come to life in many different forms. Establishing a presence in the United States gives us the structure we need to secure new partnerships and introduce the brand to families across the country. Dana’s dedication and belief in Space Ranger Fred have played a major role in making this possible.”
Speaking about the expansion, CEO Dana Ellis said, “The US is an extraordinary opportunity for Space Ranger Fred. Families are looking for content that is imaginative, positive, and aligned with strong values. What Matt has created fits perfectly with what children and parents need. Incorporating here allows us to build serious momentum as we expand into animation, interactive learning, and gaming. This is an important step in positioning Space Ranger Fred for long term success in the US market.”
Work is already underway on early concept development for animation and transmedia projects. The brand is also preparing for a large community-building campaign linked to an upcoming crowdfunding initiative that will support the launch of animated content. Educational partners, production studios, and distribution platforms have begun engaging with the franchise as interest continues to rise.
The incorporation also strengthens the brand’s ability to attract US based investors and strategic partners. With the rapid growth of children’s media, ed tech tools, and mission driven storytelling, Space Ranger Fred aims to position itself at the intersection of entertainment and education. The brand’s themes of exploration, teamwork, and curiosity have resonated strongly with early test audiences in the US.
“Space Ranger Fred carries a message of hope, imagination, and possibility,” said Newnham. “Children everywhere dream about exploring the stars. The United States will play a vital role in helping us bring that dream to even more families.”
