Chicken Run 2 will be the second movie sequel from Aardman, following the release of the upcoming Shaun the Sheep Movie Farmageddon (which was formerly known as simply Shaun the Sheep Movie 2).
THR is reporting that Aardman is developing Chicken Run 2 with StudioCanal, which has backed most of Aardman’s recent films, and original Chicken Run co-financier Pathe.
The original Chicken Run movie hit theaters in 2000 and it remains the highest grossing stop-motion animated feature of all time, with a worldwide take of $225 million.
Aardman is currently in production on the second Shaun the Sheep movie and is expected to begin work on the Chicken Run sequel not too long after that film wraps photography.
