Overview
- Netflix announced the film will stream on December 18, 2026, during its Annecy presentation on June 24, and set up a Remind Me page on the service.
- Attendees at Annecy saw the first seven minutes and an additional clip, and Netflix released new production images but has not yet issued a public trailer.
- Brad Bird directed the retro‑futurist, neo‑noir Ray Gunn, which stars Sam Rockwell as the detective, Scarlett Johansson as Venus Nova, and Tom Waits as the alien partner Eyera.
- Bird and Skydance presented the film as pure keyframe computer animation with no motion capture, with major production work completed at Cinesite Montreal and Michael Giacchino attached to score.
- The project began in the mid‑1990s and was revived after Skydance greenlit production around 2022, and the December release is positioned for holiday viewership and possible awards consideration even though any theatrical run is not confirmed.
