Wallace & Gromit Return in 'Vengeance Most Fowl' with Iconic Villain Feathers McGraw
The stop-motion duo's first feature film in nearly two decades explores technology gone awry and revives a beloved antagonist.
- Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl marks the duo’s first feature since 2005’s The Curse of the Were-Rabbit and first appearance since 2008’s A Matter of Loaf and Death.
- The film reintroduces Feathers McGraw, the cunning penguin villain from 1993’s The Wrong Trousers, now seeking revenge after decades in captivity.
- The story critiques overreliance on technology, as Wallace’s AI-powered garden gnome invention, Norbot, becomes a tool for Feathers’ schemes.
- The climactic chase scene, set on a British canal, pays homage to the iconic train chase in The Wrong Trousers while offering a fresh, story-driven twist.
- Co-directed by Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham, the film has been longlisted for BAFTA awards and is expected to contend for the animated feature Oscar.
