Jagged Edge Productions and ITN Studios, the makers of Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey 1 & 2, are creating a new cinematic world titled ”The Twisted Childhood Universe”.
The new chilling cinematic universe will feature previously announced stand-alone films Bambi: The Reckoning, Peter Pan’s Neverland Nightmare, and Pinocchio Unstrung. Plus, it will introduce new characters such as Sleeping Beauty, The Mad Hatter, and Rabbit from Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey. All of these characters will culminate in the upcoming film Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble in 2025, when the monsters join forces to take down the world.
The runaway success of the microbudget Blood & Honey has spawned a wave of childhood favorites twisted into horror movies, but Jagged Edge is clearly taking the ball all the way on this.
The Twisted Childhood Universe is Born
Rhys Frake-Waterfield is set to direct. Casting is to include Scott Chambers returning as Christopher Robin, Megan Plactio as Wendy Darling, Roxanne Mckee as Xana, and Lewis Santer as Tigger—more casting announcements to come. Stuart Alson and Nicole Holland serve as Executive Producers.
Producer of Jagged Edge Productions Rhys Frake-Waterfield explains, “It will be complete carnage. We are heavily influenced by Freddy Vs Jason and The Avengers. We would love to see a horror movie where the villains group together and are going after their survivors. We have some incredible set pieces in mind, and some sequences I think will truly shock people. The movies we are working on now as standalones are all building towards Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble”
Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble is aiming for a 2025 release.
