What Disney announced
The Walt Disney Company confirmed the Bluey feature will arrive in theaters on August 6, 2027. Disney stated the movie is a feature-length project and will be released theatrically.
Animation and studio
The movie will be produced in 3D CGI by Australian animation studio Cosmic Dino. This differs from the television series, which has been animated in 2D by Ludo Studio.

No additional high-profile castings, such as Margot Robbie, were confirmed in the company’s statement.
Context and industry notes
The Bluey television series has been produced in 2D animation by Ludo Studio for broadcast. For the feature, Disney chose a 3D CGI approach and a different animation vendor, placing the project alongside other studio-backed CGI features.
