Brian Young serves as showrunner on “Fate: The Winx Saga,” after producing shows somewhat similar in tone like “The Vampire Diaries” and “Kyle XY.” Although Young was uninvolved in the making of “Winx Club,” he told TVLine that his show’s predecessor remains an important part of its DNA. “Things will tie back into the ‘Winx Club’ universe. This show is inspired by that,” Young said in an interview about Season 3.
In fact, at least two key contributors to “Winx Club” helped oversee “The Winx Saga” during the making of its first season. “Winx Club” executive producer Joanna Lee notably produced “The Winx Saga,” though her involvement is limited to Season 1, meaning that the show continued with an entirely original production team moving forward.
Furthermore, in response to a fan question about her lack of involvement in “The Winx Saga,” Molly C. Quinn, who voices Bloom in “Winx Club,” revealed that the “Winx Saga” team brought her in at one point in the series’ early days. “I did get to meet with the great production team and read the pilot! It’ll be a fun show and I think the casting is wonderful,” she wrote on her Twitter account.
So, while “Fate: The Winx Saga” may be its own entity, its ties with “Winx Club” began before its first episode premiered, and seem to remain a priority for its showrunner moving forward.
