The thrilling new trailer unveils a tantalizing glimpse into the unfolding story, where Wallace and his tech-savvy, pre-programmed helper gnome, Norbot, find themselves at the center of a storm – prime suspects in a string of mysterious garden heists that have shaken the region. This Christmas, the film premieres exclusively on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, setting the stage for its global debut on Netflix come January 3, 2025.

Crafted by the animation geniuses at Aardman Animations and helmed by the legendary creator Nick Park, who brought us Wallace and Gromit, as well as the enchanting world of Shaun the Sheep, 'Vengeance Most Fowl' sees Gromit fearlessly take on sinister threats while Wallace adamantly proclaims his innocence. However, be warned, as McGraw, fresh from his jailbird days, returns with a vengeance that's more sinister than ever.

This marks the dynamic duo's first foray into the big screen since their 2008 short film masterpiece, 'A Matter of Loaf and Death,' and their long-awaited reunion with their nemesis McGraw, last seen in the Oscar-winning 'The Wrong Trousers' back in 1993.

Ben Whitehead reprises his role as the voice of Wallace, the quirky, cheese-obsessed inventor from the north of England, who shares his life with his steadfast companion, Gromit. Peter Kay returns as the formidable Chief Inspector Mackintosh, while a star-studded cast including Diane Morgan from 'Motherland,' Adjoa Andoh from 'Bridgerton,' and the esteemed Sir Lenny Henry make cameo appearances, adding even more sparkle to this already dazzling production.

'Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl' stands as the second feature-length offering in the beloved franchise, following the critically acclaimed 'The Curse of the Were-Rabbit' in 2005. Their repertoire also boasts classic short films such as 'A Grand Day Out' and 'A Close Shave,' further cementing their status as animation royalty.

Get ready to embark on a heart-pounding, laugh-filled adventure when this 70-minute masterpiece arrives on Netflix outside the UK on January 3, 2025.
