Animated hitmakers Gorillaz are planning to star in their own TV cartoon series. The stars, fronted by Blur singer Damon Albarn, can't wait to get the show off the ground.

An insider tells British newspaper The Sun, "They are really excited about this project. It'll be a really funky, cool show for older kids."

Gorillaz debuted in late 2000 with the "Tomorrow Comes Today" EP, which they followed early the next year with the "Clint Eastwood" single; their self-titled full-length debut arrived in spring 2001. Gorillaz are a massive worldwide success and achieved platinum-level sales in the U.S.
