Starring global icon Shaquille O’Neal, who also serves as Executive Producer, Shaq’s Garage is an animated adventure series for children inspired by Shaq’s love for cars, and helping the community. In the show, Shaq stars as himself and voices one of the main vehicle characters, a larger-than-life truck named Biggie D. Each episode follows Shaq and his diverse crew of vehicles as they embark on exciting adventures, helping out and doing good in their hometown of Ollanta and beyond. The Shaq Paq is a lovable cast of characters whose missions are always focused on positive messaging, promoting teamwork, and giving back to the community.

Joining Shaq in this animated world is NFL Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski, who voices the comical and loyal Gronk Mobile, a key member of the Shaq Paq. Together, they lead the team through challenges with humor, heart, and a lot of horsepower.
