A feature film based off the hit Australian television show Bluey will premiere in cinemas in 2027, BBC Studios and the Walt Disney Company have announced.
According to the companies, the CGI-animated film will “continue the adventures of Bluey, a lovable, inexhaustible, blue heeler dog, who lives with her Mum, Dad and her little sister, Bingo.”
Series creator Joe Brumm will write and direct the film, with the voice actors of the series returning.
“I’ve always thought ‘Bluey’ deserved a theatrical movie,” Mr Brumm said in a statement.
“I want this to be an experiential event for the whole family to enjoy together.”
After the series’ premiere on ABC TV in 2018, Bluey has grown into a worldwide sensation and was the most-watched series globally on Disney+ in 2024.
The program, which stars blue heeler Bluey Heeler, has aired three seasons.
It was created by Ludo Studio, based in Brisbane, and many of the show’s settings bear a striking resemblance to the Queensland capital.
