Netflix and Aardman Animation have hatched another trailer for their 23-years in incubation feathery follow-up Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget.
Following their escape from Tweedy Farm in 2000’s $224 million-grossing original, this sequel finds Ginger (Thandiwe Newton) and Rocky (Zachary Levi) playing parents to a rebellious teenager named Molly (Bella Ramsey), who takes a feather out of their caps by going on a death-defying adventure of her own. Read what we thought of Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget in our review, and then check out the brand new trailer below…
From the multi Academy and BAFTA award-winning Aardman (Creature Comforts, Wallace & Gromit, and Shaun the Sheep), and Academy Award and BAFTA-nominated director Sam Fell (ParaNorman and Flushed Away, respectively), comes Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, the eagerly anticipated sequel to the beloved and highest-grossing stop-motion animated film of all time, Chicken Run. Having pulled off a death-defying escape from Tweedy’s farm, Ginger has finally found her dream — a peaceful island sanctuary for the whole flock, far from the dangers of the human world. When she and Rocky hatch a little girl called Molly, Ginger’s happy ending seems complete. But back on the mainland the whole of chicken-kind faces a new and terrible threat. For Ginger and her team, even if it means putting their own hard-won freedom at risk — this time, they’re breaking in!
Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget flies onto Netflix on December 15th, 2023.
