"Miss Kraken. Ruby Gillman" will tell the story of a shy teenager who discovers that she belongs to the legendary royal line of mythical sea krakens and that her destiny is different than what she ever dreamed of. Sweet, clumsy 16-year-old Ruby Gillman (voiced by Lana Condor) is desperately trying to fit in with the rules of high school, but mostly she just feels unnoticed. Ruby can't hang out with the cool kids at the beach because her overprotective mom (voiced by Oscar® nominee Toni Collette) has banned her from going in the water. But when she breaks her mom's #1 rule, Ruby discovers she's descended from the warrior Krakens and is destined to inherit the throne from her grandmother (voiced by Academy Award® Jane Fonda), Warrior Queen of the Seven Seas. The Krakens are the guardians of the oceans, protecting them from the vain, power-hungry mermaids that have been battling the Krakens for centuries. It turns out that the school's new girl, the beautiful Chelsea (voiced by Emmy Award-winning Annie Murphy), is a mermaid. Ruby will have to finally accept who she is and do great things to protect those she loves the most.
