Playmobil universe, his sister, Marla (Anya Taylor-Joy),
sets out to find him. During her adventures, she teams up
with some unlikely new friends, including smooth-talking
food truck driver Del (Jim Gaffigan), dashing and
charismatic secret agent Rex Dasher (Daniel Radcliffe), a
wholehearted misfit robot and an extravagant fairy-godmother
(Meghan Trainor). Adam Lambert will voice the character of
villain Emperor Maximus.

Playmobil toys have become a classic throughout children's
playrooms, and have produced over 2.9 billion figurines in
more than 100 countries - making it one of the world's most
successful toy brands.

Lino DiSalvo will make his directorial debut on Playmobil:
The Movie after spending 17 years at Disney Animation, where

highest-grossing animated film of all time. Di Salvo also
worked as animation supervisor on Tangled and Bolt.

Blaise Hemingway, also from Disney, wrote the screenplay
together with Greg Erb and Jason Oremland. The head of
animation is Julien Bocabeille who is known as the animator
on The Boss Baby and Kung Fu Panda 3. Aton Soumache, Dimitri
Rassam, Emmanuel Jacomet, Alexis Vonarb and Oliver Stone
regular Moritz Borman serve as producers who have also the
same producers who have worked on The Little Prince.

Playmobil: The Movie was developed in cooperation with Pathé
France and will be sold internationally by Lionsgate and Wild
Bunch. The animated film was supposed to be released in the
US by Open Road but fell through due to Global Road's
bankruptcy.

The fact that there would be a Playmobil movie was announced a few years
ago now, but as there was already a successful Playmobil cartoon series
from Morgen Studios / Method Animationat, most people assumed at first that
it was going to be "Super 4 - the movie". But I began to have doubts about
this some time ago as none of the movie bumph namechecked Super 4, and it
seems I was right, the film will be nothing to do with the cartoon series.
Bit of a shame, since I like Super 4, although I think series 2 is down a
notch compared to series 1 so maybe a movie wouldn't have worked, who
knows.
