The original ToeJam & Earl was released for the Sega Genesis back in 1991. This was followed up by a 1993 platforming sequel called Panic in Funkotron, and then ToeJam & Earl III: Mission to Earth in 2002. The series follows two aliens who come to earth to get their groove on.

Amazon's ToeJam & Earl movie is being written by Amos Vernon and Nunzio Randazzo, who previously wrote Hotel Transylvania 4, according to THR.

ToeJam & Earl would be Amazon's latest video game production adapted for film or TV. Amazon is also producing the Fallout TV series and might tackle Disco Elysium and Life Is Strange after that. It's also been reported that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson might star in and produce an It Takes Two movie for Amazon.

The latest ToeJam & Earl game was 2019's ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove, which was successfully funded on Kickstarter.
