Chicken Run 2: New animated sequel confirmed after 18-year wait
- Published
The original Chicken Run remains the highest-grossing stop-motion animation film of all-time
"Rocky and Ginger are coming home to roost!" in a new Chicken Run movie, Aardman Animations has announced.
The Oscar-winning animation studio, who also make Shaun the Sheep, and Cbeebies Timmy Time hasn't set a release date yet.
Its announcement comes 18 years after the original film flew onto the big screen.
Chicken Run is the highest-grossing stop-motion animation film of all-time - banking 拢161.3 million at the box office.
Chicken Run centred around a group of chickens, including Rocky and Ginger, desperate to escape the evil Mrs Tweedy's clutches before her Yorkshire farm is turned into a chicken pot pie factory.
It has not been confirmed if members of the original cast - including Julia Sawalha as Ginger and Mel Gibson as laid-back American cockerel Rocky Rhodes, will return to voice their respective characters.
