The highly-anticipated sequel, “Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget,” recently unveiled an intriguing promotional angle, leaving fans buzzing with excitement. Director Sam Fell, in an exclusive interview with Empire Magazine, drew a captivating comparison between the chickens’ island sanctuary and the technologically advanced fictional nation of Wakanda from Marvel’s “Black Panther.”
Fell’s unconventional analogy centered on the remarkable technological progress that the feathery characters have achieved since their escape from Tweedy’s Farm in the first movie. This newfound paradise, where Ginger and her companions found refuge, now faces an impending threat. The story will revolve around the chickens’ efforts to ensure a secure future for the younger chicks on the island.
Describing the island’s transformation, Fell emphasized its organic and idyllic nature, emphasizing its handcrafted and non-regimented appearance. The director, along with the creative team, meticulously designed this world, envisioning how chickens would create their living spaces, gardens, and overall environment.

The collaboration between Aardman and Netflix signifies a strategic move to cater to the growing popularity of animation in various forms, appealing to a wide audience.
Sean Clarke, Aardman MD, expressed excitement about the Wallace and Gromit inclusion, emphasizing the irresistibility of the concept for these iconic characters. The film promises a thrilling narrative that pushes the characters to risk their hard-won freedom to confront a new and menacing threat on the mainland.
The voice cast for “Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget” features talented actors, including Thandiwe Newton as Ginger, Zachary Levi as Rocky, and Imelda Staunton as Bunty, among others.
