R-Rated Animated Movie That Netflix Saved From Warner Bros. Gets First Images & Release Date

Netflix unveils first images and a release date for an R-rated animated movie saved from Warner Bros. The movie, тιтled Fixed, had its distribution rights returned to Sony Pictures Animation after Warner Bros. removed it from its slate last year as part of the studio’s effort to shift away from animation. Fixed was also the second animated movie following the shelving of Coyote Vs. Acme to be cast aside.

Netflix now shares first-look images and confirmed that Fixed will come to the streaming platform on August 13. The 2-D animated movie from five-time Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Genndy Tartakovsky stars Adam Devine (Pitch Perfect), Idris Elba (Sonic the Hedgehog 3), and Kathryn Hahn (Agatha All Along) in a story about a quick-witted dog who discovers that he’s about to be neutered and decides to go on one last adventure before the procedure. Check out the images below:

What This Means For Fixed

Fixed Blends Adult Humor With Heart

The images tease the vibrant and exaggerated animation style in filmmaker Genndy Tartakovsky’s upcoming movie. In the same press release, the director, co-writer, and producer shared that the inspiration for the story originated from his best friends, who make him laugh “like nothing else.” With Fixed, he aims to “translate” the humor in his life into “caricatured and exaggerated animation.” While Fixed in its early stagse drew comparison to “rated R Lady and the Tramp,” it has since then developed its own unique idenтιтy.

With Fixed being a movie about friendship, humor, and exaggerated fun, it’s filled with dynamic characters, and voiced by an all-star cast. Devine voices the тιтular dog named Bull, while Elba lends his voice to the self-ᴀssured boxer, Rocco. Bobby Moynihan will play a goofy Lucky, and Fred Armisen is a wannabe influencer named Fetch.

Our Take On Fixed

The first-look images and synopsis further indicate that its initial removal from Warner Bros. doesn’t reflect its quality.

In a way, Fixed may have a more impressive roster than some of Warner Bros.’ upcoming big-budget projects. The first-look images and synopsis further indicate that its initial removal from Warner Bros. doesn’t reflect its quality. On the contrary, Fixed sounds like a very promising animated movie.
