This 2023 Netflix Animated Fantasy Movie Deserved To Be a Kpop Demon Hunters-Sized Hit (& Fans Should Watch It)

Released in 2023, Nimona is a big, imaginative science-fantasy adventure that had a surprisingly tough journey to the big screen. It’s based on the popular graphic novel by ND Stevenson and originally started at Blue Sky Studios, but the project was canceled when Disney bought 20th Century Fox. Luckily, Annapurna Pictures and Netflix stepped in to help directors Nick Bruno and Troy Quane finish their vision of a world that blends technology and medieval times. The story centers on Nimona (voiced by Chloë Grace Moretz), a shapeshifting teenager who teams up with Ballister Boldheart (voiced by Riz Ahmed), a knight wrongly accused of a crime. Despite earning strong reviews and an Academy Award nomination, Nimona didn’t achieve the same level of commercial success as KPop Demon Hunters, even though the two films share many similarities.
