Netflix returns to the Annecy International Animation Film Festival with a bold, genre-spanning line-up of films, series, and special events. This follows a standout year for Netflix Animation, with the Oscar-nominated Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl winning two BAFTAs, Arcane earning seven Annie Awards, and Orion and the Dark earning Children and Family Emmys for Best Special Production and Best Writing.

A full rundown of Netflix's Annecy activity includes:

Next on Netflix Animation returns to Th tre Bonlieu on Wednesday, 11 June. This year's session will feature exclusive previews of In Your Dreams and Stranger Things: Tales From 85. Showrunner Eric Robles will present a world-exclusive first look at the Stranger Things animated series, while director Alex Woo, production designer Steven Pilcher, and VFX supervisor Nicola Lavender will debut never-before-seen footage from their upcoming film In Your Dreams during a special panel.

The world premiere of Fixed will take place at Annecy on Wednesday, 11 June. The newly acquired adult comedy film from Genndy Tartakovsky (Primal, Hotel Transylvania) brings his signature irreverence and artistry to the big screen.

A masterclass with Raphael Bob-Waksberg, the creator of BoJack Horseman, follows on Thursday, 12 June. He'll be joined by the team behind his upcoming adult comedy series, Long Story Short, with audiences getting an early look at an episode ahead of its debut.

Work-in-Progress and Making of sessions for Ubisoft's popular Tom Clancy game franchise, Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, and Folivari's French preschool series 7 Bears for a behind-the-scenes look at these titles.

For the first time, Netflix will host a dedicated Animated Series Studio Focus on Thursday, 12 June, giving audiences an in-depth look at our full animation series slate. From preschool (Dr. Seuss's Horton!) to adult spectacle (Blue Eye Samurai season 2, Magic: The Gathering), family spectacle (Ghostbusters, Minecraft), and comedy (Haunted Hotel), this session-led by Netflix Animation executives John Derderian (Vice President, Animation Series), Heather Tilert (Director, Kids + Preschool), Billy Wee (Director, Adult Comedy), Dylan Thomas (Director, Adult Spectacle), and Dominique Bazay (Director, Family Spectacle)-will share insights into our creative and production processes behind our animated slate.

And finally, Netflix titles - Ast rix & Ob lix: Le Combat des Chefs and Devil May Cry - will compete in Annecy's Official TV Films Competition, while Mononoke The Movie: Chapter II - The Ashes of Rage will be screened as part of the festival's Midnight Specials programming, which are out of competition.
