If you find yourself rooting for the underdogs, know that sometimes things aren’t as always as they seem, and love cute and cuddly animated animals, have we got the trailer for you! Netflix announced today that it has a new animated film coming out in December calledBack to the Outback.
The film will center around the Australian Wildlife Park, home to a cute, cuddly koala known as Pretty Boy who is adored world wide (and even in space!) for his big eyes, fluffy fur, and cuddly ways. The park is also home to the outback’s “most dangerous animals,” including crocodiles, snakes, spiders, scorpions, and more.
The action picks up when the animals decide they are going to make a break for it and goBack to the Outback(get it?) where they believe they will find a true home. On the night of their breakout, Pretty Boy is a real Unkind Boy to the rag-tag group of runaways and tells them that they’ll never make it because they’re “a bunch of creepy animals.” The group kidnaps the rude koala and drags him along on their journey.
