\n\tEXCLUSIVE: Sola Media<\/a> has unveiled the international trailer for animated feature Monster Mia<\/a>, and announced a fresh set of deals as it continues the sales campaign for the CGI picture at the EFM.<\/p>\n

\n\tSet in the picture-perfect town of Primrose, Monster Mia follows a rebellious young girl, who is expelled from her local school and sent to the mysterious Rotwood Academy, where her classmates are monsters. With only her scruffy pet rat Quentin for support, she must find a way to survive, fit in, and ultimately embrace what makes her different.<\/p>\n

\n\tAdapted from the \u2018Monstrous Maud\u2019 book series by UK writer A. B. Saddlewick, \u00a0published under the title of \u2018Monster Mia\u2019 in Germany, the upcoming film has been drawing strong buyer interest ever since its sales launch by Sola Media at the AFM, which is being bolstered by a scheduled delivery in time for Halloween 2026. <\/p>\n

\n\tAs the EFM gets underway, the company has unveiled a slew of sales out of the AFM including the Baltics (ACME Film), CIS (Exponenta), Hungary and Romania (ADS Service), Czech Republic and Slovakia (Bontonfilm), Israel (Filmhouse), Middle East (Gulf Film), Scandinavia (ManyMore Films), Italy (Notorious Pictures), Ukraine (Svoe Kino) and Vietnam (Skyline Media Company).<\/p>\n

\n\tThey join previously announced sales to Poland (New Horizons), Greece (Tanweer), Bulgaria (Pro Films), Mongolia (Filmbridge) and former Yugoslavia (Karantanija Cinemas). In Germany, Plaion Pictures is planning a theatrical release timed for the Halloween season in October 2026.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe film is produced by Austria-based animation studio Arx Anima, in collaboration with Peng! Boom! Tschak! \u2013 Films and Spain\u2019s Arxlight Pictures.<\/p>\n

\n\tWe\u2019ve been absolutely thrilled by the response to Monster Mia from distributors around the world,\u201d said Dunja Bernatzky, Managing Director of Arx Anima. \u201cSeeing the film resonate with partners everywhere from Italy to Vietnam truly speaks to its universal themes. At its heart, this is a story about belonging, friendship, and embracing who you are \u2013 and those are ideas that connect with children and families no matter where they live.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSolveig Langeland, Managing Director of Sola Media, said the deals indicated how the film\u2019s themes resonated worldwide. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMonster Mia is a Halloween adventure that speaks to children and families across cultures and its seasonal appeal allows distributors to align releases across multiple markets,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\n\tSola Media Sales and Market Manager Isabel Schneider said she expected the planned Halloween 2026 rollout to galvanise a coordinated international release.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThat strong Halloween positioning also makes the film perfectly suited for coordinated international releases, and a natural fit for our Films on the Move application to Creative Europe MEDIA this March. With the support of the MEDIA scheme, we recently coordinated a synchronized international holiday release for A Mouse Hunt for Christmas, which went on to become a global box office hit with more than 2.2 million admissions worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: Sola Media has unveiled the international trailer for animated feature Monster Mia, and announced a fresh set…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":464102,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[88,216175,206,216176],"class_list":{"0":"post-464101","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-monster-mia","10":"tag-movies","11":"tag-sola-media"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/464101","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=464101"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/464101\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/464102"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=464101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=464101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=464101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
