One person who won’t partake in the new film is Louis C.K., the voice of the lead dog Max, who was booted from the sequel in the wake of his Me Too scandal. This Illumination production is a sequel to the 2016 original, which was a massive global success, grossing around $875 million worldwide. Production studio: Illumination Mac Guff (France) The new movie sees Shaun and his flock rally against an invasion of aliens who arrive at the farm. The follow-up to Aardman’s Oscar-nominated 2015 stop-motion film is being distributed again by Lionsgate in the United States. Production studio: Aardman Animations (UK) STX Entertainment is producing the film in conjunction with Robert Rodriguez and his Troublemaker Studios outfit. This film ties into the hugely popular Uglydoll brand, based upon a series of plush toy characters. Production studio: Reel FX Animation Studios (USA/Canada) The studio’s technical advances continue to impress: look for a new approach to how Laika makes its stop-motion characters appear to be breathing via an air-filled apparatus that was developed for this film. Laika’s newest stop-motion adventure, in which the studio will also be taking advantage of cg and visual effects, is about a living remnant of the link between man and ape.
