As a longtime follower and fan of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir, I can confidently say that this show has been an integral part of my life for the past seven years. From the moment I first saw it, I knew it was going to be something special – much like how I felt when I first watched Sailor Moon as a kid. And boy, was I right!
In the year ahead, Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir will mark its tenth anniversary, with the franchise’s radiant future shining brighter than ever as it prepares to captivate audiences in its eagerly awaited sixth season and embark on a fresh adventure with an upcoming anime venture. The journey since its 2015 debut has been nothing short of remarkable, and ComicBook recently sat down with Miraculous star Cristina Vee for an exclusive conversation about the series’ incredible evolution, the tantalizing prospects of season 6, and the show’s innovative new direction in terms of style, design, and merchandise.
Season 1 to Season 6
Looking forward to Season 6, let’s reminisce about when Vee joined the cast as the voice of our cherished character, Marinette (also known as Ladybug). From the moment Vee caught a glimpse of the series, she instinctively knew it would be extraordinary, drawing parallels with the legendary Sailor Moon. Indeed, her prediction has proven accurate over time.
Initially, upon catching brief glimpses of the show and reading its description, I couldn’t help but exclaim, “This is amazing!” I shared my thoughts with the director, saying something like, “I have a feeling that this could be the modern-day equivalent of Sailor Moon.” And it seems that my intuition wasn’t far off.
Vee shared, “The responses I observe from those I converse with, particularly the younger generation, and I notice that glint in their eye. It’s as if I say, ‘I recognize that glimmer.’ That’s how I felt as a child watching Sailor Moon, and it’s that type of program where you become so engrossed in the characters and their connections.” She added, “There’s also the fighting and the transformations, and it’s simply, there’s an abundance to it.

Season 6 introduces fresh adversaries and obstacles, marking the commencement of a new academic year as well. Although the characters won’t undergo significant aging, Vee is thrilled by the numerous ways they have evolved and matured, and this growth will persist in season 6.
Vee confirmed that Marinette has been 14 for nine years now, but she’s thrilled about the upcoming season to witness her growth. Even though Marinette hasn’t physically aged on screen, she’s shown an incredible range of personality and character development over a relatively short period in the series.
Vee commented, “They’ve significantly evolved, and the Ladybug character from season 5 is quite distinct from her portrayal in season 1 and Marinette. It’s going to be thrilling to watch the transformation unfold. I find it hard to believe when people say they’ve grown up with this show; I still feel like a newborn!
From TV to Film
Previously, both last year and the present have witnessed the debut of “Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir” in cinematic form, yet Vee explained that the approach to producing the series and the film differed significantly.
The film’s production process differed significantly since we already had an English version featuring two exceptional actors, who are likely based in Paris. However, the animation is being done for two people, and they’re delivering their lines in English. Consequently, we’re adding our voices to it. But unlike previous projects, Vee explained, the movie was the first time we were responsible for writing the script from scratch and working on it extensively over several years.
Vee explained, “We’re working on various script drafts, adding new sequences. Some scenes were cut out. I had to re-take this line and record again, which was necessary. It was quite an unusual experience, and it was enjoyable because it challenged both me and Bryce, pushing us beyond our usual acting techniques.
Vee shared, “When I’m recording Ladybug, after all this time, it feels almost natural, as if I just slide back into it. However, when it comes to the movie, I had to fully immerse myself, rediscovering the character all over again, and that was an exhilarating experience.
A New Style, Same Heart
Vee shared, “It’s common knowledge that there’s a fresh animation style and unique character designs in store, which is thrilling! I can’t wait to see how things are evolving. It’s not a complete reboot, but it sure feels like a new beginning.
Absolutely! I’m really looking forward to it. The character designs are cute yet retain their original essence. Just as the animation in the movie was a pleasant surprise, I believe season 6 will have that same unique feel.
Although we’re yet to watch season 6, Mattel has kept us entertained by introducing fresh designs and toys that hit the shelves. Spotting Ladybug and her pals in toy stores never fails to excite, especially when some of these are fantastic Paris-themed playsets! You can grab the latest Paris Heroes Playset right here.
Vee stated, “It truly feels extraordinary. I enjoy exploring the products, too. For instance, when I’m in Walmart, I often wander around to discover what’s new, and I’m consistently amazed. Recently, someone at a convention presented me with a Ladybug apple juice, and it was just incredible! To top it off, there’s now a massive Eiffel Tower here, which is quite impressive.
The sixth season of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir is anticipated to premiere around 2025. Take a look at the first poster for the upcoming season, displayed in the image above. Currently, you can stream seasons 1 through 5 on Disney+.
