As promised, a sequel to this year’s Winnie the Pooh slasher movie is on the way, and in fact, Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is already in production!
The Hollywood Reporter shares the first images from the upcoming Blood and Honey sequel this morning, which preview the return of the murderous incarnation of Pooh.
The sequel will also feature the characters Christopher Robin, Piglet, and Owl.
THR notes, “Currently in production, the sequel comes with a bigger budget, more kills and even an Olivier Award-winning, BAFTA-nominated star in the form of Simon Callow (Four Weddings and a Funeral), who has joined the cast.”
“Bigger and Badder. The sequel will feature new creature designs, a new cast, and a high death count,” said writer/director Rhys Frake-Waterfield. “However, this time Pooh and friends will be leaving the 100 Acre Wood to take their fight to the quiet community of Ashdown!”
“Our sequel we have a substantially higher budget so Rhys is really able to create a shocking, explosive and gore-filled movie. I truly think people will really dig what we are creating,” said producer Scott Jeffrey.
The cast for Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 also includes Tallulah Evans, Scott Chambers (Doctor Jekyll) as Christopher Robin, Ryan Olivia (Seasoning House) as Winnie-the-Pooh, and Peter DeSouza-Feighoney (The Pope’s Exorcist) as Young Pooh.
Matt Leslie (Summer of 84) wrote the screenplay for the slasher sequel.
