Warner Bros has set the release date for its animated musical Bad Fairies. The studio announced on Tuesday that the film will debut in theaters on July 23, 2027, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter. Directed by Megan Nicole Dong, who is known for creating and directing the Netflix animated musical series Centaurworld, the movie is currently in production in London.
Warner Bros. also revealed that Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, the co-creators of the Tony-winning musical Six and the upcoming musical Why Am I So Single, which premieres on London's West End next month, will pen the songs for Bad Fairies. Grammy-nominated musician Isabella Summers (Florence and the Machine) has been enlisted to compose the score and produce the songs.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bad Fairies is described as a "subversive musical comedy set in present-day London and focusing on a rule-breaking group of fairies." Dong directs the feature from a script by Deborah Frances-White, host of the podcast The Guilty Feminist. DNEG Animation is the digital partner for Bad Fairies.
"Warner Bros. Pictures Animation and Locksmith Animation are thrilled to welcome this extraordinary dream team of musical talents, Toby Marlow, Lucy Moss, and Isabella Summers, into our Bad Fairies family," said Warner Bros. Pictures Animation president Bill Damaschke and Locksmith Animation CCO Mary Coleman in a joint statement. "Together, they will add a vibrant and unforgettable dimension to the story, and we can't wait to share it with audiences worldwide in 2027." The details about the voice cast have yet to be disclosed.
