“NIMONA” STARRING CHLOË GRACE MORETZ, RIZ AHMED & EUGENE LEE YANG COMING TO NETFLIX IN 2023

Netflix will release the much anticipated animated film Nimona in 2023. Netflix partnered with Annapurna Pictures when production began early last year.
Nimona is adapted from the New York Times bestselling graphic novel by author ND Stevenson, who announced the news and debuted a first look on Twitter this morning.
Following the announcement of Disney shutting down Blue Sky Studios, Stevenson said it was a “sad day” and that they wished the best for everyone who worked at Blue Sky Studios, while Osborne said he was “truly heartbroken” that the studio was closing its doors. Webcomics commenter Gary Tyrrell criticized the decision, saying, “[Disney] could have allowed a very different kind of young heroine… I mourn for those who would have found a vision of themselves in an animated version”.  Anonymous staffers at Blue Sky interviewed by Business Insider bemoaned the cancellation of the film, calling it “heartbreaking,” arguing that the film “didn’t look like anything else in the animated world,” and saying that they believe it will never “be completed and released.” Had it been made, it would have been Blue Sky’s first film with LGBT representation, as a few staffers confirmed to BuzzFeed News that the film had an “I love you” scene between Blackheart and Goldenloin.
Originally slated to be directed by Patrick Osborne, the film will instead be co-directed by Nick Bruno and Troy Quane.
Synopsis: A knight is framed for a crime he didn’t commit and the only person who can help him prove his innocence is Nimona, a shape-shifting teen who might also be a monster he’s sworn to kill. Set in a techno-medieval world unlike anything animation has tackled before, this is a story about the labels we assign to people and the shapeshifter who refuses to be defined by anyone.
