Laika, the studio best known for making stop-motion movies like 2009’s Coraline, is making a live-action movie written and directed by Brian Duffield.
The new movie will be called Crumble and follows a couple who set off on an adventure around the world in order to find a remedy for an ancient curse. A release date for Crumble has not yet been announced.
Per Variety, Crumble will be written and directed by Duffield, who previously directed 2020’s Spontaneous and 2023’s No One Will Save You.
What else do we know about Laika’s Crumble movie?
Phil Lord and Chris Miller will produce the film alongside Duffield and Aditya Sood. Lucy Kitada and Nikki Baida serve as executive producers.
“I’ll never forget seeing Coraline on opening night at the AMC Burbank 16 and wondering who these wonderful new geniuses were,” Duffield said. “I can’t wait to make a movie with them and hopefully live up to their banner, and I couldn’t be more excited to get to go on a new adventure with my friends at Lord Miller.”
Laika’s Matt Levin added, “We’re so excited to partner with Brian and the entire team at Lord Miller on this special film. Brian has such a singular voice, and ‘Crumble’ perfectly embodies the bold, emotional, and inventive storytelling that we champion at Laika. Lord Miller is in a class of its own, and we could not ask for a better creative team to bring this story to life.”
In addition to Coraline, Laika’s filmography includes 2012’s ParaNorman, 2014’s The Boxtrolls, 2016’s Kubo and the Two Strongs, and 2019’s Missing Link. Travis Knight is currently working on another stop-motion for the film titled Wildwood, which is expected to be released in 2025.
In 2021, Laika announced that they were working on their first live-action movie, which is an adaptation of John Brownlow’s novel Seventeen.
