Overview
- Genndy Tartakovsky’s Fixed was shelved by Warner Bros./New Line during 2024 cost-cutting before rights reverted to Sony and Netflix released it on August 13, 2025.
- Critics have praised Tartakovsky’s vibrant hand-drawn animation and singled out Adam DeVine’s voice performance for particular acclaim.
- Many critics and viewers argue that the film’s reliance on repetitive crude sexual humor and a one-note premise undermines its narrative impact.
- The film’s festival circuit run, including a premiere at Annecy and closing Fantasia, was amplified by red-band and full trailers ahead of its Netflix launch.
- Neither Netflix nor Sony Pictures Animation has announced a sequel as of mid-August, leaving the future of a Fixed franchise in question.
