Nickelodeon and Paramount have partnered with LAFIG Belgium and IMPS, the world license holders for The Smurfs, to produce multiple movies based on the franchise. The first project will be a cg-animated musical feature. Also, this movie is expected to be directed by Derek Drymon and Jennifer Kluska. Set to start production this year, it is slated for release on December 20, 2024.

Why It Will Rock

 * 1) It will be the first CG-animated Smurfs film from Paramount Pictures, after the executive meddling when Sony Pictures Animation acquired the rights to develop the Smurfs films in 2008.
 * 2) It will feature musical numbers, which is wonderful to hear.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The film does not launch until Christmas in 2024, which is way too long.
