A mystery for the whole flock arrives with ‘The Sheep Detectives’
The idea of seeing Hollywood A-lister Hugh Jackman as the Shepard to a bunch of crime-solving sheep has had us hooked ever since we first learned of The Sheep Detectives, and now a brand new trailer has us very exited for what comes next.
Watch the brand new trailer for The Sheep Detectives below:
Here’s the official synopsis;
In this witty, new breed of mystery, George (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads detective novels to his beloved sheep every night, assuming they can’t possibly understand. But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realise they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.
Adapted from the novel Three Bags Full by Leonie Swann, The Sheep Detectives looks like a rollicking good time as whodunnit mystery looks set to get solved by a bunch of inquisitive sheep, and there’s. wonderful sense of poppy comedy, and all kinds of hijinks to keep audiences entertained.
The cast is particularly stacked, headlined by Hugh Jackman as George and Julia Louis-Dreyfus as his most trusted sheep Lily, it also features the likes of Emma Thompson, Nicholas Braun, Nicholas Galitzine, Bryan Cranston, Chris O’Dowd, Regina Hall, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, Brett Goldstein, and Rhys Darby, and all are about to deliver some serious comedy with in this film.
With its mix of comedy and mystery, The Sheep Detectives shows just how far this flock is willing to go for justice, and it promises to be a very fun time out at the cinema for audiences when it arrives in cinemas on May 7.
