Check Out the First Teaser for WALLACE & GROMIT: VENGEANCE MOST FOWL

by

As a connoisseur of animated cinema and a devoted fan of Wallace & Gromit since their humble beginnings, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming feature film, “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.” The teaser alone has sent shivers of anticipation down my spine. Feathers McGraw’s return is a delightful reminder of the duo’s past escapades, and the introduction of Norbot, the robot gnome, promises a fresh twist to their inventive adventures.

Approximately 31 years ago, a friendly inventor with a fondness for cheese and his clever, endlessly patient canine companion faced genuine malice. This antagonist, of course, was a mischievous penguin disguised as a chicken. Known as “The Wrong Trousers,” this Aardman Animations short film marked the second appearance of Wallace & Gromit and won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short in 1994. To this day, it might just be the best animated short I’ve ever encountered. The storyline revolves around the duo creating a pair of robotic pants that malfunction, all while an evil penguin plots their demise.

The notorious bird character, Feathers McGraw, makes a return appearance in the initial trailer for the movie “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl“. Take a look at it below.

From this sneak peek, it’s not clear exactly what we can expect, but we do know that the upcoming movie will be a sequel to “The Wrong Trousers” and introduce a new character – a robot gnome named Norbot, created by Wallace and Gromit. This is only the second full-length film from the longstanding stop-motion duo since their Academy Award-winning production, “The Curse of the Were-Rabbit,” in 2006. Earlier shorts in the series include “A Grand Day Out” (1989), “A Close Shave” (1995), and “A Matter of Loaf and Death” (2008).

On January 3rd, 2025, the much-anticipated Wallace & Gromit adventure titled “Vengeance Most Fowl” will make its debut on Netflix. Here’s a sneak peek at the storyline:

As a gamer, I found myself growing uneasy as Wallace kept relying more on his creations. But my fears were confirmed when he unveiled a “smart” garden gnome that seemed to have a life of its own. To make matters worse, it appeared an old enemy was manipulating the situation from behind the scenes. It was up to me, Gromit, to stand against these shadows and save Wallace – if he ever wanted to invent again!
