Laika to Re-Release 'ParaNorman' for Halloween 2025
Laika, the animation studio, is bringing back its spooky movie "ParaNorman" to theaters for Halloween 2025!
This means you can see it in 3D again.
They're also adding a new short film with Finn Wolfhard and Anna Kendrick.
This is happening because their other old movie, "Coraline," did really well when it was re-released.
It's like Laika is giving everyone a chance to enjoy their fun, slightly scary movies on the big screen again.
Laika will re-release its 2012 film "ParaNorman" in 2D and RealD 3D for Halloween 2025.
The re-release will include a new CG animated short film titled "ParaNorman: The Thrifting".
The short will feature Finn Wolfhard and Anna Kendrick, with direction by Thibault LeClercq and writing by Chris Butler.
The re-release is a partnership between Laika, Trafalgar Releasing, and Fathom Entertainment.
The initiative follows the successful 2024 re-release of Laika's "Coraline".
