'Stray' Director's Next Animated Film Secures Annapurna Deal
Annapurna Animation is moving forward with multiple projects, including a new film from Nimona co-director Nick Bruno and the next title from Ice Age director Chris Wedge. One of the projects in development is an animated movie based on the award-winning adventure game Stray, which follows a stealthy cat navigating an underground city with the help of a friendly drone. Annapurna Animation also plans to adapt video games from Annapurna Interactive. The division aims to create unique and heartfelt animated films while building on the relationships and talent from Blue Sky Studios, which was shut down by Disney in 2021.
