Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl Premieres Christmas Day

Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl marks the return of the beloved claymation duo after a 19-year hiatus, with co-directors Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham drawing inspiration from classic films like Hitchcock's Rebecca and Cape Fear. The film, airing on BBC One on Christmas Day and streaming on Netflix starting January 3, 2025, explores themes of technology and relationships, particularly through the introduction of Wallace's AI-powered 'Norbot' gnome. Park reflects on the evolution of their production techniques, embracing modern technology while maintaining traditional stop-motion animation, with a crew of over 200 and advancements in visual effects. The film promises to deliver both humor and a commentary on our reliance on technology, echoing past Wallace & Gromit adventures. Additionally, a companion book, The Art of Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, offers insights into the film's creation, featuring behind-the-scenes looks at key scenes and character reintroductions. Fans eagerly await this new installment, which is expected to resonate with audiences as much as previous holiday specials did.
