News Shaun the Sheep The Year of the Sheep Continues With Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom Trailer It’s baaaaad out there By Molly Templeton | Published on June 24, 2026 Image: Studio Canal Comment 0 Share New Share Image: Studio Canal You cannot have too many sheep movies. To be honest, this year really only has two sheep movies—The Sheep Detectives and the latest Shaun the Sheep film—but that is two more sheep movies than most years can boast.  The Sheep Detectives is now on streaming; Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom is coming along just in time for the Halloween season, and we have a new trailer for it! This one has far fewer references than the previous trailer, but it does have many good shots of animated sheep doing experiments on pumpkins (?) and claymation people freaking out at the sight of a beast that looks like a scarecrow made of dog fur. It is very likely said beast will be revealed to be nothing of the sort, but it is equally likely that the journey to discover the mossy-bottom truth will be absolutely delightful. This film, of course, hails from Aardman, the animation studio behind Wallace & Gromit and Chicken Run. The synopsis explains: Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom sees the residents of Mossy Bottom Farm looking forward to Halloween – until the clumsy Farmer trashes the Flock’s beloved pumpkin patch! When Shaun turns MAD SCIENTIST to fix the problem, things rapidly spiral out of control… With The Farmer missing and a wild beast roaming the woods of Mossingham, all the ingredients are in place for a monstrously fun family adventure. MAD SHAUNENTIST! This trailer also features a pumpkin laser and a disappointed snail. I don’t know what else you could ask for. Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom is in theaters September 18.[end-mark] The post The Year of the Sheep Continues With <i>Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom</i> Trailer appeared first on Reactor.
