We've still got quite a wait for the next feature film from
Aardman Animations, which isn't due to hit cinemas until next Spring. Fortunately, to tide us over the generous folk at Aardman and
StudioCanal have released a second (longer) teaser for the film.
Shaun The Sheep the Movie is the first feature-length outing for the lovable character first introduced in
Nick Park's Wallace and Gromit short
A Close Shave. He has since starred in his own hit TV show for the
BBC which has been shown in more than 170 countries. Despite being aimed at a younger audience than Park's classics, the charm and humour in the series has a pretty universal appeal.
The second trailer gives us a first look at the film proper, with the adorable wooly fella heading for the big city. It's going to be interesting to see a whole movie based on a character who can't talk- a first for Aardman. The stop-motion specialists are more than up to the task though, as their flair for visual humour and storytelling is unsurpassed. Check out the full trailer below. Shaun the Sheep the Movie will open in UK cinemas
February 6th 2015.
