Aardman Releases Trailer for Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom
Aardman Animation and Sky have released the new trailer for the family-friendly horror spoof Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom, and you can watch it here!
The creators of Wallace and Gromit and Chicken Run are bringing us the action-packed third installment in the Shaun the Sheep franchise, following the release of Shaun the Sheep Movie and A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon. This time, Shaun is taking on the persona of a mad scientist in a nod to the classic horror films such as Frankenstein. With hens quaking, Bitzer diving for cover, booby traps primed, and even a chainsaw‑wielding sheep, the stage is set for a hilariously spooky showdown as the flock races to save both Halloween and the farm.
2025 marked 30 years since Shaun made his on-screen debut in Wallace and Gromit: A Close Shave, which became one of Aardman’s best-performing properties. With the first Shaun the Sheep feature film going on to several awards, including a BAFTA and an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film, it was one of the highest-grossing animated films of 2015. With the second also being Academy Award and BAFTA nominated.
The film serves as the directorial debut of long-serving Aardman animation collaborators Steve Cox and Matthew Walker, with Farmageddon writer Mark Burton and Shaun the Sheep: Adventures from Mossy Bottom TV series writer Giles Pilbrow writing the script.
Synopsis:
“Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom” sees the residents of Mossy Bottom Farm looking forward to Halloween, until the clumsy Farmer trashes the Flock’s beloved pumpkin patch! When Shaun turns mad scientist to fix the problem, things rapidly spiral out of control…With The Farmer missing and a wild beast roaming the woods of Mossingham, all the ingredients are in place for a monstrously fun family adventure.
Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom is in UK cinemas on September 18th.
