<p dir="ltr"><strong>WILDWOOD</strong><br> <em>PG-13 · 139 min · Stop-motion animation · Opens October 22</em></p> <p dir="ltr">From LAIKA, the studio behind <em>Coraline</em> and <em>Kubo and the Two Strings</em>, comes its most ambitious film yet. After her baby brother is abducted by a murder of crows, headstrong teenager Prue McKeel launches a rescue mission into the Impassable Wilderness, an enchanted forest hidden just beyond Portland, Oregon. With her loyal but hapless classmate Curtis at her side, Prue navigates a world of talking animals, bandits, and powerful figures driven by grief and ambition. </p><blockquote dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr">“I think I’ve just seen the most beautiful stop-motion film ever made.”<br> — <em>The Telegraph</em> (★★★★★)</p> </blockquote><blockquote dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr">“The most ambitious stop-motion film I’ve ever seen.”<br> — <em>The Hollywood Reporter</em></p> </blockquote><blockquote dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr">“Dazzling stop-motion animation [that] breaks new ground in terms of scale, intricacy, and ambition.”<br> — Wendy Ide, <em>Screen Daily</em></p> </blockquote><blockquote dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr">“Wildwood is a spectacular success.”<br> — Guy Lodge, <em>Variety</em></p> </blockquote><blockquote dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr">“A masterpiece of stop-motion animation.”<br> — Matt Neglia, <em>Next Best Picture</em></p> </blockquote><p dir="ltr"> </p><blockquote dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr">“The crowning achievement in Laika’s 20-year journey.”<br> — <em>Flickering Myth</em></p></blockquote> <p dir="ltr">Directed by Travis Knight and based on the bestselling novel by Colin Meloy (lead singer of The Decemberists), illustrated by Carson Ellis, the film features an extraordinary voice cast: Peyton Elizabeth Lee, Jacob Tremblay, Carey Mulligan, Mahershala Ali, Awkwafina, Angela Bassett, Jake Johnson, Charlie Day, Richard E. Grant, and Tom Waits. Every frame was built by hand — the project was in the works for over 14 years — and Knight made it for exactly this kind of room: he designed it to be discovered in the dark, on a big screen, with a room full of fellow dreamers. </p> <p dir="ltr">A note for families: this one’s for older kids and grown-ups. The film is largely about grief and the heavy cost of carrying it, and one review warns of multiple character deaths and at least one genuinely traumatic scene.</p>AnimationPT2H11MPG-132026-10-22USenPeyton Elizabeth Lee
