Iyanu: Child of Wonder (or simply Iyanu) is an upcoming superhero-action children's fantasy animated series by Roye Okupe, based on Okupe and Godwin Akpan's graphic novel series of the same name. It will premiere on Cartoon Network in the United States on April 5, 2025, followed by Max on April 6.

Iyanu: Child of Wonder takes place in a Yoruba-inspired world, based on a graphic novel by YouNeek and Dark Horse Comics and created by Roye Okupe. The show is about a teenage orphan girl who discovers that she has power that has not been seen since the age of wonders. She joins with her friends Biyi and Toye, and they embark on a remarkable journey to discover the truth about the evil lurking in her homeland. Throughout her adventure, she uncovers the truth about her past, her parents, and her destiny to save the world.

A teenage orphan girl, Iyanu, lives in Yorubaland, a magical land, and triggers her magical powers by accident, joining two other teens to discover the reality of evil in her homeland, and learn about her past in the process.

In July 2022, an adaption of the Iyanu: Child of Wonder graphic novel series by Okupe and Akpan was announced by HBO Max and Cartoon Network. It was further noted the series is "heavily influenced" by Nigeria's Yoruba people and will be overseen, and financed, by Lion Forge Animation, a Black-owned animation studio, which is an animation unit for Lion Forge Comics. The series is aimed at children ages 6 to 11.
