Not one, but two, animated long shorts based on the much-loved stories by powerhouse picture book duo Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.

Animated by our pals at Magic Light Pictures—who have won countless awards for their brilliance—and featuring the voice talent of Adjoa Andoh, Bill Bailey, Meera Syal, Matt Smith, Olivia Colman, and Rob Brydon, to name but a few, this rhyme-filled double bill is a terrific screen escapade for littlest super-book-worms.

Superworm is super-long and super-strong with many super-skills. But what happens when Superworm gets super-cocky and starts to ignore his friends? The red Smeds and the blue Smoos must learn to overcome their differences and work together, in an out-of-this-world story of tolerance and acceptance.

Directed by Jac Hamman and Sarah Scrimgeour + Samantha Cutler and Daniel Snaddon
