‘Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble’: Move Over Marvel, It’s Time For A New Kind Of Cinematic Universe
From Jagged Edge Productions and ITN Studios, the makers of Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey 1 & 2, comes a new cinematic world: The Twisted Childhood Universe. The new chilling cinematic universe will feature previously announced stand-alone films Bambi: The Reckoning, Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, and Pinocchio Unstrung. It’ll also introduce new characters such as Sleeping Beauty, The Mad Hatter, and Rabbit from Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey. All of these characters will culminate in the upcoming film Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble.
Rhys Frake-Waterfield, director of Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey 1 & 2, explains,
“It will be complete carnage. We are heavily influenced by Freddy Vs Jason and The Avengers. We would love to see a horror movie where the villains group together and are going after their survivors. So we have some incredible set pieces in mind and some sequences I think will truly shock people. The movies we are working on now as stand-alone are all building towards Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble.”
Scott Chambers, Producer of Jagged Edge Production, adds,
“Similar to The Avengers we will follow Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Owl, Piglet, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty, Bambi, The Mad Hatter, Peter Pan, and Tinkerbell joining forces to wreak havoc. We are working with a larger scale budget on this one and are excited for what the future will hold. When you see the stand-alone movies you will see the easter eggs hinting toward the crossover. Some of the villains also will not see eye to eye which will allow for some carnage within the group in some epic sequence of monster vs monster.”
Rhys Frake-Waterfield is set to direct. Scott Chambers returns as Christopher Robin, Megan Plactio as Wendy Darling, Roxanne Mckee as Xana, and Lewis Santer as Tigger, with more casting announcements to come. Stuart Alson and Nicole Holland serve as Executive Producers.’Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble is a Jagged Edge Production with ITN Studios and Premiere Entertainment handling sales.
Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 hits theaters March 26-28, 2024 from Fathom Events. The end credits will feature an exclusive look at the Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble.
