‘Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl’ Creators Promise Emotional Comeback: “We’re Going To Make Everybody Cry And Laugh” — Contenders London


Aardman's stop motion heroes return in feature film format for the first time in neartly 20 years this winter in Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl

In their new big screen appearance, Wallace and Gromit’s friendship is put to the test by the former’s invention of a smart gnome called Norbot, who takes on a life of his own, wreaking havoc in the process. The movie, which launches on the BBC in the UK and on Netflix worldwide this winter, is only the second Wallace & Gromit feature after 2005 The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, although Aardman has continued to work with the characters in short films and video games. So that’s where the technological side of visual effects has really come on to a point where we can embed it into stop motion in a way that feels appropriate to the Wallace & Gromit world, which is kind of chunky.
