Sky today announces a host of special guest voice appearances for its upcoming Sky Original feature film, Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom, also produced by Aardman and STUDIOCANAL. Nina Sosanya, Paul Whitehouse and Roman Kemp will join the Flock for Shauns biggest adventure yet, together with the previously announced Dani Dyer and Justin Fletcher who returns as the voices of Shaun and Timmy. Alongside the eclectic guest voice cast, the film will also feature a brand-new remix of Shaun the Sheep's iconic theme tune, Life's A Treat, by British hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks.

In this third stop-motion feature from multi award-winning animation studio Aardman, Nina Sosanya will voice Mossingham's trusted vet, Paul Whitehouse will play the local Shop Keeper, Roman Kemp will appear as a Pizza Boy and Dani Dyer will voice the town's social media-savvy Influencer in her first-ever animation voice acting role.

Having previously reworked the track for the first Shaun the Sheep Movie in 2015, Rizzle Kicks return with a fresh remix that will feature during the film's end credits.

Jordan Stephens of Rizzle Kicks remarked: I've proudly said working with Aardman on the Shaun the Sheep soundtrack is one of my best moments. Shaun is just iconic and the song is a real banger.

Harley Alexander-Sule, added: We grew up watching Wallace & Gromit, so when we were asked to remix Life's A Treat, it was a very easy decision to make. We had loads of fun in the studio putting a fresh spin on it and I can't wait to watch the new film with my kids.

Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom sees the residents of Mossy Bottom Farm looking forward to Halloween - until the clumsy Farmer trashes the Flock's treasured pumpkin patch! When Shaun turns MAD SCIENTIST to fix the problem, things rapidly spiral out of control... With the Farmer missing and a wild beast roaming the woods of Mossingham, all the ingredients are in place for a monstrously fun family adventure.

Aardman has partnered with Sky as the exclusive UK distributor, releasing the film theatrically across the UK. STUDIOCANAL is releasing the film theatrically in all of its territories except the U.K., and including France, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Poland, Benelux and Italy. GKIDS is handling the US release. Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom is the third stop-motion animated feature film from Aardman's globally loved brand.

2025 marked 30 years since Shaun's first appearance in Wallace and Gromit: A Close Shave and the series is one of Aardman's best-performing properties. It has been broadcast in 170 territories worldwide, with its seventh series airing later this year. The first Shaun the Sheep feature film was nominated for several awards including a BAFTA and an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film and was one of the highest-grossing animated films of 2015. The second, A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon, was also Academy Award and BAFTA nominated and was widely praised by critics. In 2021, Aardman also released a half-hour special, the International Emmy-winning Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas.

Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom is written by Mark Burton (Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, Paddington in Peru, Shaun the Sheep Movie) and Giles Pilbrow (Horrible Histories, Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas) and directed by Steve Cox (Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas) and Matthew Walker (Lloyd of the Flies), with Richard Beek (Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl) as Producer, and Nick Park, Peter Lord, Carla Shelley and Sarah Cox as Studio Executive Producers.

Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom will premiere in cinemas on 18 September 2026
