A release date has been set for the first feature-length “Bluey” movie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BBC Studios and The Walt Disney Company announced on Sept. 4 that the feature-length, animated movie is set to make its theater debut on Aug. 6, 2027.<\/p>\n

Released by Joe Brumm in 2018, “Bluey”<\/a> follows the life of a Blue Heeler puppy of the same name. Bluey lives with her mom, dad and sister Bingo, and the family is always up to fun, unpredictable shenanigans.<\/p>\n

On average, a “Bluey”<\/a> episode runs about seven minutes, but in April 2024, Brumm and the team released “The Sign,”<\/a> a 28-minute-long episode in Series 3. Brumm said in a BBC news release<\/a> he enjoyed working on this longer episode and a feature-length movie felt like a “natural extension of that.”<\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve always thought ‘Bluey’ deserved a theatrical movie. I want this to be an experiential event for the whole family to enjoy together,” Brumm said in the news release<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The “Bluey” movie was written and directed by Brumm and is being produced by Ludo Studio and BBC Studios. It will star vocal talent from the series’ original cast, including Melanie Zanetii as Chili Heeler (Bluey’s mom) and David McCormack as Bandit Heeler (Bluey’s dad). The movie is produced by Amber Naismith, known for “Happy Feet,” “The Lego Movie” and “The Lego Batman Movie,” the news release<\/a> states.<\/p>\n
