Production

On October 7, 2019, DreamWorks Animation announced that a feature film based on the Spirit Riding Free series was in development, with Elaine Bogan serving as director and Ennio Torresan serving as co-director from a script by series creator Aury Wallington, and produced by Karen Foster.[1] The film will be produced on a lower budget and be made by a different animation studio outside of DreamWorks, similar to Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie.[1]

Production of the film was done—and shifted to work—remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

Release

The film is scheduled for a theatrical release on June 4, 2021.[3] It was previously scheduled for May 14, 2021,[1] but was delayed when the film was officially titled.
