Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir adaptations: films & series
Every version of Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir — the films & series, compared across media.
Marinette and Adrien are two Parisian teenagers entrusted with magical jewels that transform them into the superheroes Ladybug and Cat Noir — and neither knows the other's true identity, or even that they are classmates. That dual-identity hook drives the long-running animated series and has expanded into a theatrical film and globe-trotting TV-movie specials, each revisiting the same characters and world at a different scale.
