Peacock Is Now Streaming the Best Animated Movie of 2024 (And There’s a Sequel on the Way)

The animated film The Wild Robot, from DreamWorks, is now streaming on Peacock after previously being available on Netflix. Directed by Chris Sanders and adapted from Peter Brown’s 2016 novel, the movie tells the story of a robot who crashes on a deserted island. She survives by learning to live in the wilderness and forms friendships with the animals, eventually raising an orphaned gosling named Brightbill. Released in 2024, The Wild Robot – featuring Catherine O’Hara in her final role – was both a critical and commercial hit. A sequel, based on Brown’s book The Wild Robot Escapes, is already planned.
