Rocker and activist Bono has recruited Penelope Cruz, Michael Sheen, and David Oyelowo to lend their voices to a new animated series promoting the importance of access to vaccines.

The U2 frontman has launched Pandemica through his ONE global health and anti-poverty charity, and the series will also feature characters voiced by Kumail Nanjiani, Phoebe Robinson and Wanda Sykes.

The seven-episode series features the stars as various characters as they highlight the lack of coronavirus vaccines available to people in many of the world's poorest countries. "Pandemica's animated world animates a simple truth - that where you live shouldn't determine whether you get these life-saving shots," Bono shared in a statement.
