It’s been 23 years since the chickens flew the coop. Netflix is bringing ‘Chicken Run: Dawn Of The Nugget’ to strengthen its animation portfolio. The film features the return of Ginger and Rocky, now voiced by Zachary Levi and Thandie Newton. It looks like Netflix is looking to sweep up the award for Best Animated Feature after already dominating the Best Picture category at the Oscars.
The film will be a heist film, as Ginger and Rocky lead a campaign to find out the trouble in their paradise. This time, they break in before their kind goes extinct. The film is available to stream on Netflix on 15 December 2023. Hopefully, the nostalgia factor works in the film’s favor.
