Overview

• Tartakovsky posted a short CG clip on Instagram on Sept. 26–27, asking for a groundswell of support to persuade the studio to proceed.
• The footage teases a 14th‑century setting with a 20‑foot suit of armor piloted via ropes, pulleys and levers, facing off against an agile opponent.
• Coverage cites the project’s origins at Sony Pictures Animation, which liked the work but questioned whether a theatrical audience exists.
• Early reaction was strong, with roughly 37,000 likes and nearly 2,500 comments on his post within a day, yet no greenlight has been announced.
• The move echoes Tartakovsky’s past use of test reels and comes as studios remain cautious about original adult‑oriented animated films in theaters.
