Robin Robin
Aardman Animation, maker of Wallace & Gromit, looks like it’s trading clay for felt in Robin Robin, a sweet tale of an owlet who was raised by mice, and now really wants to become one. When she learns that “who-mans” have a special tree with a star on top that gives them everything they want on Christmas morning, she sees her chance to get her wish—and all she has to do is sneak into a house as quietly as a mouse. As you can see in the trailer, her owl-ness does present a challenge. On a side note, the official synopsis describes Robin’s origin as beginning when “her egg fortuitously rolls into a rubbish dump.” I thought you should know.
Where can I watch Robin Robin?
Robin Robin is coming to Netflix on November 24 and features the voices of Gillian Anderson as a cat more than happy to take out an owl and Loki’s Richard E. Grant as the owlet’s mouse patriarch.
