DreamWorks Studios have decided to come back in force in 2024, offering several projects to delight young and old. It started at the beginning of the year with The Night of Orionreleased last February on Netflix, then with the return of the famous warrior Dragon Po in Kung Fu Panda 4 in March.

And after a few months of waiting, fans were finally able to discover the new feature film from the animation studio, entitled The Wild Robot (or The Wild Robot in the original version). Available since October 9, 2024 in our theaters, this animated film is directed by Chris Sanders, known in particular for Lilo & Stitch (2002), How to Train Your Dragon (2010) or even The Croods (2013).

And while it's been less than a week since The Wild Robot was released in theaters here, it seems that a sequel is already planned according to Deadline. In any case, this is what Sanders confirmed this weekend, stating that there were indeed “plans for a second film”.

The Wild Robot is adapted from the eponymous novel by Peter Brown. Here is the short synopsis of the animated film offered by Universal Pictures:

DreamWorks Animation exclusively presents the adaptation of the #1 New York Times Best Seller graphic novel by literary phenomenon Peter Brown: THE WILD ROBOT.

THE WILD ROBOT follows the incredible journey of a robot – ROZZUM Unit 7134 aka “Roz” – who is shipwrecked on a deserted island and must learn to adapt to a hostile environment by slowly building relationships with the island’s animals. He ends up adopting a goose chick, a gosling, who ends up orphaned.

This powerful story is centered on self-discovery, a fascinating observation of the bridges that connect nature and technology while sensitively exploring what it means to be in the world and connected to life in all its forms.
