Vorlage:Short description Vorlage:Use dmy dates Vorlage:Infobox film Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl is an upcoming 2024 British stop motion animated comedy film produced by Aardman Animations and directed by Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham, featuring Park's characters from the Wallace & Gromit series.

The film premiered at the American Film Institute on 27 October 2024[2] and will be broadcast on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on 25 December 2024 in the United Kingdom, and will become available on Netflix internationally on 3 January 2025.[3][4][5] The film received universal acclaim from critics.

Appearing silent are Gromit, Wallace's brave and highly intelligent pet beagle and best friend, and Feathers McGraw, a penguin and criminal mastermind.[10]

Additionally, Adjoa Andoh and Lenny Henry will appear in cameo roles.[10]

Production

During production of the A Matter of Loaf and Death (2008), Nick Park remarked publicly on difficulties with working with DreamWorks Animation during the production of Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005), such as the constant production notes and demands to alter the material to appeal more to American children.[11][12] This discouraged him from producing another feature film for years, with Peter Lord noting that Park preferred the "half hour format".[13]

A new Wallace & Gromit film was announced in January 2022, with Park and Merlin Crossingham as directors, from a screenplay by Mark Burton, while Claire Jennings was announced to produce.[14][15]

The factory that made Lewis Newplast, the modelling clay used by Aardman, shut down in March 2023; Aardman purchased enough remaining clay to cover the new Wallace & Gromit film.[16] The Daily Telegraph initially reported that the studio may not be able to produce new films afterwards due to a lack of clay, but Aardman later released a statement clarifying that it would find a new supplier.[17][18]

The film's title was confirmed to be Vengeance Most Fowl on 6 June 2024, alongside the reveal that Feathers McGraw, the antagonist of Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers (1993), would return. At that time, Richard Beek was announced to have replaced Claire Jennings as the producer.[19]

Music

The film's score was composed by Lorne Balfe, replacing the franchise's longtime recurring composer Julian Nott. Balfe previously provided additional music for Nott's score in Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005).[20]

Release

The film premiered worldwide on the closing day of the AFI Fest on 27 October at the Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, with a limited theatrical release set for 18 December 2024.[21] The film will then air in the United Kingdom on BBC One on 25 December 2024, and release outside of the UK on Netflix on 3 January 2025.[3][22][23][14][15]

Critical response

On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 100% of 36 critics' reviews are positive with an average rating of 8.6/10. The critical consensus states the following: "Comforting as cheese and crackers, with some gentle ribbing of modern technology sprinkled on top, Vengeance Most Fowl revives this lovable pair with all their charm intact."[24] Vorlage:Metacritic film prose
