A New Shaun the Sheep Film Releases in 2026!

We’re excited to announce that the third Shaun the Sheep movie is in production! Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom will be released in 2026, bringing an exciting new story to the screen that sees Shaun turn mad scientist and a very hairy beast let loose in the local Mossingham woods.

The Beast of Mossy Bottom introduces some new characters as well as featuring all your favourite members of the Flock. Expect some humorous takes on classic horror (but playing for laughs, not scares!) mixed in with lots of visual puns and the slapstick comedy for which Aardman is loved the world over. 

Following in the footsteps of Shaun’s previous feature length films and his upcoming Series 7 launch, it’s another moment of celebration as this year marks the 30^th anniversary of Shaun’s first screen appearance in Wallace & Gromit: A Close Shave.  

Both of Shaun’s previous films received BAFTA® and Academy Award® nominations, with Shaun the Sheep Movie one of the highest-grossing animated films of 2015. The upcoming film will be released as a Sky Original in the UK and distributed by STUDIOCANAL in other territories.  

We’re looking forward to sharing more news on the film as we have it, so be sure to follow Shaun’s social accounts for all the latest updates!
