The upcoming film, tentatively slated for a late 2025 launch, would be the fruits of The Twisted Childhood Universe that started with Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey. In the identical vein as Freddy vs. Jason and The Avengers, the Poohniverse plot will deliver collectively the horror variations of Pooh, Peter Pan, Bambi, Pinocchio and lots of others, who group as much as seek out their survivors.
Throughout a current interview with JoBlo for the upcoming launch of Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, Scott Jeffrey shared some perception of what is to return from Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble. In laying out his and director/producing companion Rhys Frake-Waterfield’s imaginative and prescient for the crossover, the producer started by revealing the film is engaged on “a bigger scale funds” than the person titles, whereas additionally confirming every film has “Easter eggs hinting towards the crossover“:
Much like The Avengers, we are going to observe Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Owl, Piglet, Pinocchio, Sleeping Magnificence, Bambi, The Mad Hatter, Peter Pan, and Tinkerbell becoming a member of forces to wreak havoc. We’re working with a bigger scale funds on this one and are excited for what the longer term will maintain. Whenever you see the standalone films, you will note the Easter eggs hinting towards the crossover. A number of the villains additionally is not going to see eye to eye, which is able to permit for some carnage inside the group in some epic sequences of monster vs. monster.

You’re gonna get Mary Poppins. I simply determined she’s gonna be within the combine. So she’s gonna be a nightmare in there. And likewise, simply don’t anticipate anybody to outlive. I like that Avengers [Infinity War] the place all of them die on the finish, like Spider-Man and all that. Usually, I don’t like these movies. And I obtained dragged to the cinema, and once they all died, I used to be like, “Oh, I like it now, I need to watch the following one.” However then, once they all obtained resurrected, I used to be like, [motions dismissively]. However in ours, actually, I would like you to sort of, hopefully, like these characters. Like when you’ve got your introductory movies like Pinocchio, that you simply love the lead characters, and similar with Peter Pan. However I’m going to destroy them in-universe, and nobody’s… like, it’s gonna be like you possibly can depend on a hand who’s going to outlive it.
What This Means For Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble
The TCU Will not Be The Similar After The Crossover
Whereas a launch nonetheless appears to be a methods away for Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble, Jeffrey and Frake-Waterfield clearly stay enthusiastic about their distinctive horror franchise’s future. After the primary Winnie-the-Pooh was met with scathing critiques, the latter promised future movies can be drastically higher. Although the sequel was nonetheless not fairly a important hit, Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 did see far better reviews, with its 47% ranking from critics on Rotten Tomatoes being about 16 instances higher than the primary film’s.
As for Jeffrey’s feedback above, it looks like Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble will change the TCU in quite a few main methods going ahead. Past the crossover, just one character is confirmed to be getting a sequel, with Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3, which Jeffrey and Frake-Waterfield introduced as a part of the primary sequel’s launch. The one different films introduced to this point are Awakening Sleepy Magnificence and Snow White Returns, which may imply everybody from Peter Pan to Bambi and Pinocchio will not survive the crossover.

The opposite potential takeaway from Jeffrey’s tease is that Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble will arrange new characters to get solo films going ahead.

Our Take On Jeffrey’s Poohniverse Teases
A Continued Focus On High quality May Lead To A Lengthy Life For The TCU
Contemplating the prolonged street lots of the different solo films have taken since first being introduced, together with Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare and Bambi: The Reckoning taking upwards of three years to make from their bulletins, I do not suppose Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble will see as fast of an arrival as Jeffrey and Frake-Waterfield are aiming for. That stated, in the event that they do proceed their devotion to enhancing the franchise’s high quality with every film, I’ve quite a lot of religion not solely within the crossover, however within the TCU’s future.
