Wildwood is a new animated/adventure film starring Carey Mulligan, Peyton Elizabeth Lee, Jacob Tremblay and Angela Bassett.
Directed by Travis Knight, Wildwood is the story of Prue McKeel as she sets off into the forests to find her kidnapped brother.
This looks pretty good.
As a goodie-two-shoes big sister, I can’t imagine disobeying my parents’ specific request the way Prue did. Not to say that a kidnapping still couldn’t have happened, of course.
Right now, I’m getting flashbacks of my once little brother’s joy-inducing face and shenanigans, such is the emotional precision of this trailer. I’m hoping the ending will be a happy one, which isn’t necessarily obvious from the trailer.
I’m expecting a moving and, hopefully, very satisfying film.
What is Wildwood bringing to mind for you?
Charlie Day, Jake Johnson, Awkwafina, Maherhala Ali, Jemaine Clement, Tom Waits, Maya Erskine, Tantoo Cardinal and Richard E. Grant also star.
Wildwood Release Dates: October 23rd, 2026 (US & UK)…

What a scary thing to happen. This looks dark.
Super scary. Dark is right, but hopefully with a good ending.
It made me think of Coraline, so far my favorite Laika movie. All their productions have a similar vibe and an excellent eye for details. I admire how they managed to carve a niche for themselves and keep on the stop motion techniques although now heavily assisted by digital tools.
Caroline is one of those movies I’m aware of, but I’m not sure I’ve seen. Perhaps I’ll watch it before Wildwood.
