Knight School (franchise)

Knight School is a media franchise created by Xavier Shaquille for Cartoon Network Studios that focuses on Ellenor, a sometimes self-centered teenage girl who gets transferred to the eponymous school and befriends a class of boys.

It includes two flash-animated films: Knight School (2023) and Knight School II (2026), including a spin-off film titled Yeoll High (2028). Three television specials have also been produced: a Christmas special Knight School Before Christmas (2023), Halloween special Fright Knight School (2026), and Promenade (2028).

Knight School (2023)
Ellenor, a confident but arrogant teenage girl, is transferred to a medieval-themed high school after failed history class. There, she struggles the highs and lows of medieval culture while making friends to the all-boy students and dating one named Lance. Little did she or anyone else know, Professor Reginald's assistant Wellington Snide plans on taking over the town of Yeoll; a goal that was unfinished by his ancestor, Lord Snide.

Knight School II (2026)
Reginald's old apprentice, named Cecile, arrives to Yeoll to pay Reginald a visit. He mourns the days of how the world would be like the Middle Ages prior to arriving. When he had witnessed Lord Snide's staff locked up, and told it was magical and powerful, he uses it to change the present into his image: a medieval present. Fortunately, Ellenor had caught him and gets the help from her altered friends and Cecile's daughter, Agatha to change the present back to its former glory.

Chelsea Kane replaced Anna Kendrick as Ellenor, Rickey D'Shon Collins replaced Damon Wayans Jr. as Oliver, Dave Fennoy replaced Cedric the Entertainer as Mike, and Frank Welker replaced William Shatner as Anthony while Ben Schwartz, John Cleese, Jane Lynch, and Conrad Vernon reprised their respective roles as Lance, Reginald, Gretchen, and Begley.

Possible Darcey spin-off
Following the release of Yeoll High, creator Xavier Shaquille had nothing in mind for any further projects for the franchise besides a spin-off centered around Ellenor's best friend Darcey. So far, he had the thought of using AJR's "World's Smallest Violin" as it suits Darcey as it represents her good-natured personality.
