Bad Fairies is flying toward a 2027 release from Warner Bros.
The studio announced Tuesday that the animated feature hailing from Warner Bros. Pictures Animation and Locksmith Animation is set to hit theaters July 23, 2027. The movie from director Megan Nicole Dong, known for creating and directing the Netflix animated musical series Centaurworld, is currently in production in London.
Warner Bros. also announced that Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss — who co-created the Tony-winning musical Six and the new musical Why Am I So Single, premiering on London’s West End next month — will write the songs for Bad Fairies. Additionally, Grammy-nominated musician Isabella Summers (Florence and the Machine) will compose the score and produce the songs.
Bad Fairies is billed as a subversive musical comedy set in present-day London and focusing on a rule-breaking group of badass fairies. Dong directs the feature from a script by Deborah Frances-White, host of podcast The Guilty Feminist. DNEG Animation serves as digital partners for Bad Fairies. A voice cast has not been announced.
“Warner Bros. Pictures Animation and Locksmith Animation are excited to welcome this extraordinary dream team of musical talents, Toby Marlow, Lucy Moss and Isabella Summers into our Bad Fairies family,” said Warner Bros. Pictures Animation president Bill Damaschke and Locksmith Animation CCO Mary Coleman said in a joint statement. “Together they will bring vibrant and unforgettable dimension to the story, and we cannot wait to share it with audiences around the world in 2027.”
Carolyn Soper produces the film, while Rikke Asbjoern and Chris Garbutt serve as heads of story. Sim Evan-Jones is editor on the project, with Uwe Heidschötter serving as cinematographer and Uwe Heidschötter handling character design.
