A still from the animated DreamWorks film The Wild Robot
The Big Picture Fans of DreamWorks Animation will have to wait a bit more to enjoy The Wild Robot, with Deadline reporting that the next movie from the acclaimed studio has been pushed back by a week. The film will now debut on September 27, after previously being scheduled to premiere on the big screen on September 20. The story of ROZZUM unit 7134 will follow the titular machine as it survives a shipwreck that leaves it on an uninhabited island.
The Wild Robot will feature voice performances from Pedro Pascal, Catherine O'Hara and Bill Nighy, as Roz comes into contact with diverse species and weather conditions. Pascal is known for his role as Din Djarin in The Mandalorian, the Star Wars television series about a bounty hunter who leaves his violent ways behind in order to take care of a youngling who needs his help.
Chris Sanders directed The Wild Robot, with the filmmaker also writing the screenplay based on the novel by Peter Brown. Sanders previously worked on titles such as The Croods and Lilo & Stitch, the story about a young girl who has to take care of an alien when he crashes near her house.
Why Was 'The Wild Robot' Delayed? Close The main reason for The Wild Robot's delay happening was because Paramount decided to move Transformers One to September 20. According to Deadline, the animated film from the Transformers franchise was in turn pushed back because Warner Bros. is ready to launch Beetlejuice Beetlejuice on September 6, turning the usually quiet post-summer month into a heated battle at the box office.
