Here’s what the Bluey movie means for the future of the show

Finally, there is an update on the future of Bluey. Fans of the beloved showwhich centers around the daily adventures of the Heeler dog family and their canine community and was created by Joe Brumm and Ludo Studios, now have some answers about what’s to come. That’s pretty big, but it comes with some bitter news.

After his beautiful final-Final feeling of season at the beginning of the year, which ended with a time jump into Bluey’s future as a motherFans were left with so many burning questions. Not even him drop of mini-sodes he gave us all kinds of clues to find out if we had more Bluey seasons Fortunately today Ludo Studios announced that it is official: Bluey a movie is coming! In a statement released on the official websiteit has been confirmed that the BBC and the Walt Disney Company have partnered with the show’s creators to bring it on Bluey to the big screen in 2027.

The film is set to be CG, which we hope means it will elevate the 2D aspect of the show – in the style ofThe wild robot, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, or Disney Wanting– and not that it will be fully CG animated. This is our first gut reaction as fans of the animation, with the excitement also remaining mostly at home as a production of Ludo Studio in collaboration with BBC Studios, with Brumm on board as writer and director. The creator shared: “I really enjoyed the experience of working with a longer format on ‘The Sign’ in Series 3, so going even further with a film feels like a natural extension of that. I have always thinking Bluey it deserved a theatrical film. I want this to be an experiential event for the whole family to enjoy together. I’m excited to continue partnering with Cecilia Persson, Tom Fussell and the team at BBC Studios, and Dana Walden, Alan Bergman, and Disney to bring this new Bluey story on the big screen.”

However, Bluey: The movie will mark Brumm’s final touch on the series he created as he exits the Bluey next team. In a “difficult” to read a letter he expanded on the reasons why he will leave after the film. “I always said I wouldn’t continue doing the show if I thought I couldn’t do a new season like the last one,” Brumm wrote. “This would have been the case for me with a potential season four, so I decided to take a break from my involvement in the TV series. In the event that I can not wrap my head around making more seasons for myself itself, “The Sign” will mark my final TV for Bluey and I wrote it like this.” U Bluey The film is based on a reborn idea that had inspired its cinematic tail on what is currently the biggest cartoon on the planet.

He continued. “Bluey it completely changed my life. It was an immensely satisfying thing to be a part of, more than I can really put into words. To walk away from it while it’s at such a height will seem crazy to some, but, for now, it’s hard for me to really go back to that four-to-six-year-old world and write authentically.

To be honest, this one does at least that Bluey fans are a little nervous about the pressure that may have been put on Ludo for more of the show by the BBC and Disney. But at least there is a sense of relief that Bluey it could still continue in its original home, just without Brumm. “My Bluey the crew and all the creative people in my life completely understand my decision. Working with that wonderful group of people has been the absolute highlight of my animation career and I hope Bluey on their CV is a badge of pride for them,” he said. “To be clear, this is not an announcement about the end of the show, but it is an acknowledgment that my focus will be on the film.”

Brumm emphasizing that this announcement doesn’t mean the show is over, gives us some hope that the show and the writing could now include more voices that love these characters. The year 2027 is a little too far and it is difficult to imagine a little more than a year without more BlueySo we have to be attentive to every word of Disney and Ludo on whether there is another season or more mini-sodes to keep us in between.

We hope that whatever happens, that stays BlueyThe stewards are allowed to be creative and sincere to the characters we love without it feeling like a cash grab. If they were going full steam ahead on film alone, that would be fine too – don’t mind throwing a Muffin Heeler-sized fit here.

Bluey: The movie will be released in 2027.
