From the producers of ‘Wallace and Gromit’ and ‘Chicken Run,’ ‘Shaun the Sheep The Movie,’ opens nationwide on August 7.
Wallace and Gromit and Chicken Run producer Aardman Studios has released new images for the forthcoming Shaun the Sheep feature, Shaun the Sheep The Movie.
Directed and written by Mark Burton (Gnomeo & Juliet), and Richard Starzak, Shaun the Sheep The Movie is the big-screen adaptation of the hugely popular animated series Shaun the Sheep. Shaun the Sheep was first seen in Nick Park’s Academy Award-winning Wallace and Gromit short, A Close Shave, and Shaun continues to enthrall television audiences in over 170 countries.
Here’s the film’s synopsis:
When Shaun decides to take the day off and have some fun, he gets a little more action than he bargained for! Shaun’s mischief inadvertently leads to The Farmer being taken away from the farm, to the Big City… Join Shaun, Bitzer and The Flock on their hilarious, action-packed, big screen adventure as they make plans to rescue the missing Farmer. A story about how we sometimes forget to appreciate the things we have in life, and the people who love us.
