Studio 100 International, Studio BlueGreen, and Viva Pictures have shared new updates on On The Edge, an original animated film scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release in 2027. The project is described as a dynamic family adventure with a strong environmental message at its core.

Directed by veteran story artist and co-director of Ron’s Gone Wrong, Octavio Rodriguez (Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Coco), the film has generated industry interest since its debut at the 2023 American Film Market. Rodriguez commented, “This film truly is the little engine that could. We set out to create a story that is heartfelt, genuine, and funny, and I believe we accomplished exactly what we intended. It’s a story that can further build on the human-animal bond by tapping into the inherent empathy within all of us. I am incredibly proud of us hitting the mark and making a film that I believe can stand the test of time. With such a great cast, every character has a distinctive personality. I am very sure that every viewer will find one of our animal personalities they deeply connect with.”

On The Edge follows a group of endangered and often overlooked animals as they embark on a global journey for survival. The story centers on Donnie, a Cuban solenodon, who leads a diverse group of misfits as they seek to understand why some species thrive while others face extinction.

The film’s unique origin sets it apart. Developed by Studio BlueGreen, a not-for-profit creative studio dedicated to using entertainment to foster a deeper connection with nature, the project’s mission extends beyond storytelling. Its marketing and outreach strategies are designed to support global conservation efforts.

Written by Laura Dockrill and Michael Ryan, On The Edge is produced in collaboration with several European animation studios, including Able & Baker and Telegael. The international voice cast is led by Daryl McCormack and Mia McKenna-Bruce, with supporting performances from Anna Maxwell Martin, Paterson Joseph, Vincent Tong, Chris O’Dowd, and Mark Rylance.
