CDX DoodleVerse

The CDX DoodleVerse is an American 3D/traditionally-animated movie franchise based on several cartoon shows, mainly based on several CDX Network original series. All the movies are distributed by Nexstar Media Group under the CoolDude201672 Studios Ltd, CDX Studios, and RedMasters Studios labels, with some exceptions.

The franchise originally began with the release of Object World Forever, which was originally conceived as a stand-alone film before being interigated into the franchise. Most movies are released throughout a year.

History
The concept of a shared universe between several cartoon shows dates back to 2007 and 2012, where XOL Media and Digital Pictures (then-independent companies from CDX) had each came up with ideas for a cinematic cartoon universe in the wake of the success of the MCU. Plans for these fell through when both companies couldn't come up with an idea to start the franchise.

In 2016, the then-new CDX Network began to experiment the idea of having a cinematic cartoon universe by proposing many ideas to the major studios. None of them had interest in creating such an idea, until CoolDude201672 Studios Ltd. (not associated with CDX at the time) expressed interest with their ideas. Eventually, CoolDude201672 would acquire XOL Media, taking their properties with them, and began working on a proposed cartoon universe.

Digital Pictures would eventually file for bankruptcy in early 2022, due to competition from the majors, notably Disney, and set-backs from the COVID-19 pandemic. Nexstar Media Group (who acquired all of the CoolDude201672 Company) won a bid to acquire all of Digital's assets ( including 70% ownership of Imira Entertainment) during May. Despite this, all of Digital Pictures' animated movies were not interigated into the DoodleVerse.

Name
Prior to its official naming in 2021, the franchise was originally referred to names like CartoonVerse, CDX Infinite Universe, and Ultimate Cartoon World. The name "CDX DoodleVerse" was eventually confirmed to be the official name of the franchise shortly after Nexstar acquired CDX in 2021.

List of films
Movies set in the DoodleVerse are usually released around the spring, summer, and fall. Each movie is placed in "Levels", similar to the phases used by the MCU. Each level normally releases 6 to 7 films a year. The continuity of the franchise is determined by release date.

All movies are distributed by Nexstar Media Group unless otherwise.
