Last year’s viral hit Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey is getting a sequel this year, and Jagged Edge Productions has released the film’s bloody official trailer this morning.
The team has promised that returning director Rhys Frake-Waterfield’s Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey II will be bigger, better and bloodier than the first film, with a higher budget allowing for both brand new creature designs and a higher kill count.
IGN debuted the trailer today, and you can watch it below.
Frake-Waterfield had teased the upcoming sequel last year, “This time Pooh and friends will be leaving the 100 Acre Wood to take their fight to the quiet community of Ashdown!”
The sequel will feature Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin, Piglet, Owl and Tigger.
Here’s the official synopsis:
“Deep within the 100-Acre-Wood, a destructive rage grows as Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Owl, and Tigger find their home and their lives endangered after Christopher Robin revealed their existence. Not wanting to live in the shadows any longer, the group decides to take the fight to the town of Ashdown, home of Christopher Robin, leaving a bloody trail of death and mayhem in their wake. Winnie and his savage friends will show everyone that they are deadlier, stronger, and smarter than anyone could ever imagine and get their revenge on Christopher Robin, once and for all.”
The cast for Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 includes Tallulah Evans, Scott Chambers (Doctor Jekyll) as Christopher Robin, Ryan Oliva (Seasoning House) as Winnie-the-Pooh, and Peter DeSouza-Feighoney (The Pope’s Exorcist) as Young Pooh.
Matt Leslie (Summer of 84) wrote the screenplay for the slasher sequel.
We’ve also been told that the upcoming sequel will crack Jagged Edge’s public domain horror universe wide open, teasing upcoming Pinocchio, Bambi and Peter Pan-based horror movies.
