Production
A sequel to Chicken Run was reported in April 2018 with Aardman Animations, StudioCanal and Pathé producing. DreamWorks Animation had no involvement due to ending their partnership with Aardman after the release of Flushed Away in 2006. Sam Fell directed, with Paul Kewley producing. The original Chicken Run writers Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell wrote the sequel. Aardman co-founders Peter Lord and David Sproxton serve as executive producers.
On 16 October 2019, the film officially began pre-production. Aardman said that Mel Gibson was not asked to return as Rocky. In June 2020, Fell released more details about the sequel, which will follow from the ending of the first film, where the chickens have settled into their new safe area. Molly, the chick of Ginger and Rocky, begins to outgrow the area, just as word of a new threat to the chickens arrives. In July 2020, Julia Sawalha, the voice of Ginger in the first film, revealed Aardman’s intention to recast her role, saying her voice now sounded too old, and commented “I have officially been plucked, stuffed & roasted”. The decision was met with widespread criticism with some finding the decision ageist.
Principal photography commenced in early 2021. In January 2022, Zachary Levi, Thandiwe Newton, David Bradley, Romesh Ranganathan and Daniel Mays replaced Gibson, Sawalha, Benjamin Whitrow, Timothy Spall and Phil Daniels as the voices of Rocky, Ginger, Fowler, Nick and Fetcher, while Jane Horrocks, Imelda Staunton and Lynn Ferguson reprised their roles as Babs, Bunty and Mac from the first film, with the film’s title revealed as Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget. Bella Ramsey, Nick Mohammed and Josie Sedgwick-Davies voiced three new characters, Molly, Dr. Fry and Frizzle, respectively. In June 2023, it was reported that Harry Gregson-Williams, one of the composers of the first film, would return to compose the sequel. In September 2023, it was announced that Miranda Richardson would reprise her role as the voice of Mrs. Tweedy and that Peter Serafinowicz would also be joining the cast as Reginald Smith, a “slightly bemused businessman”.
