The Wild Robot Release Date Delayed for DreamWorks Animation Movie

Per Deadline, DreamWorks Animation has officially changed The Wild Robot release date for the upcoming film adaptation of Peter Brown’s bestselling children’s book of the same name.

What’s the new The Wild Robot release date?

Originally scheduled for a September 20 release, the film has been slightly pushed back for a week, and will now arrive in theaters on September 27, 2024. The animated movie will be debuting in the same month as high-profile movies, including Transformers One and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

“The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot—ROZZUM unit 7134, “Roz” for short — that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling,” reads the synopsis.

The Wild Robot is directed by acclaimed animated filmmaker Chris Sanders, who’s best known for his works on iconic movies such as Croods, How to Train Your Dragon, and Lilo & Stitch. It is produced by long-time Kung Fu Panda producer Jeff Hermann.

The film will feature the voices of Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us) as Fink, Catherine O’Hara (Schitt’s Creek) as Pinktail, Bill Nighy (Love Actually) as Longneck, Kit Connor (Heartstopper) as Brightbill, Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once) as robot Vontra, Mark Hamill (The Boy and the Heron), Matt Berry (What We Do in the Shadows), and Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction).
