Bigfoot Family – Annecy 2020 Official Selection

We’re happy to announce that Bigfoot Family is one of the 10 official competition selections in the feature film category at the 2020 Annecy Animation Festival. From Variety:

“France’s 2020 Annecy Festival, the highest-profile animation gathering in the world, has unveiled its main Feature Film competition and major Contrechamp sidebar.

Sold by Charades, and directed by pioneering 3D cineaste Ben Stassen and Jérémie Degruson, tiny tot skewing “Bigfoot Family” marks a follow-up to 2018’s “Son of Bigfoot,” which grossed a significant $50 million worldwide.”

地球人壞壞!

Escape From Planet Earth was just released in Taiwan, where Chinese Mandopop singer Jam Hsiao played the voice of Scorch! It’s fun to see the international release roll out, and as they say in Chinese, 灼燒我,寶貝! (Scorch me, baby!)

$21 Million Opening Weekend!

Escape From Planet Earth had an INCREDIBLE opening weekend! Our total box office gross over the 4-day holiday was $21,101,976. On a budget of only $40 million, that ain’t half bad! To top it off, on February 18 (Presidents’ Day) we were #1 at the North American box office!

We went to see the movie on opening day, and it was great to watch it with an audience. We spent the entire weekend glued to our computers, waiting for the box office results and the audience response. We had a great audience response, and wound up with a B+ Cinemascore.

A huge thanks to everyone who came out and saw the movie!
