The computer-generated film from Apple TV+ will be about Snoopy and Charlie Brown as they and the Peanuts gang go on a journey to the big city.
The project is slated to go on floors in 2024, and it will be directed by two-time Annie Award nominee Steve Martino (Horton Hears a Who!, Ice Age: Continental Drift), while Karey Kirkpatrick is the co-writer. The film will be written on the original story from co-writers Craig Schulz, Bryan Schulz and Cornelius Uliano.
