by

As a long-time fan of Wallace & Gromit, hailing from the misty shores of the British Isles, I can’t help but feel a sense of nostalgic excitement at the prospect of their latest adventure, “Vengeance Most Fowl.” Growing up with these claymation characters was like having friends who never failed to make me laugh, no matter how grim the weather outside.

This festive season, Netflix has an exciting surprise for fans of Wallace & Gromit! Their upcoming film, titled “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl“, is ready to premiere on the streaming platform. The beloved claymation duo will be joined by a distinct new character – “Norbot”, a ‘smart gnome’ who seems to create some troubles for Gromit, all thanks to Wallace’s characteristic inventiveness. In an exclusive sneak peek, we at ComicBook offer a first glimpse of Norbot and the behind-the-scenes magic that will bring this gnome to life.

In their interview, Nick Park and Merlin Crossingham revealed details about a new character in the movie “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl” – a robot gnome named Norbot. According to Wallace, this ‘Nifty Odd-jobbing Robot’ is designed to aid Gromit with his gardening tasks and represents his most impressive accomplishment yet, deemed by Wallace as his “best invention ever!” While garden gnomes have been a staple in the universe of Wallace and Gromit, this Norbot is not your typical lawn ornament. This ‘smart-gnome’ is set to make a grand entrance into the storyline. As excited as we are to witness Wallace deploying his latest creation, it remains to be seen how Gromit, who has had quite a share of trials, will react to this new addition.

Reece Shearsmith, known for his roles in “League of Gentlemen” and “Inside No. 9”, will provide the voice for Norbot himself. Meanwhile, Ben Whitehead has been cast to play Wallace in the upcoming movie, a role he’s taking over from Peter Sallis, who was the original voice actor for the eccentric inventor.

If you’re eager to discover more about the upcoming stop-motion adventure for Wallace & Gromit titled “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl” on Netflix, here’s a summary of the film. Renowned director Nick Park, a four-time Academy Award winner, and Merlin Crossingham, an Emmy Award nominee, join forces once more to bring us this new epic tale. In this installment, Gromit’s suspicion that Wallace is overly reliant on his inventions proves correct when Wallace creates a “smart” garden gnome that appears to have a mind of its own. As it turns out, an old enemy might be orchestrating events from the shadows. It’s now up to Gromit to confront evil forces and save Wallace… if he ever wants his master to invent again!
