Andy Serkis and Iman Vellani join us to discuss Animal Farm, the new animated adaptation of George Orwell’s timeless political allegory.
Directed by Andy Serkis and featuring an all-star voice cast including Seth Rogen, Glenn Close, Woody Harrelson, and Gaten Matarazzo, Animal Farm explores how movements built on equality can be corrupted by power, manipulation, and fear.
With strong reactions coming out of CinemaCon, anticipation is building for this bold retelling.
In this interview we discuss:
• The film’s major themes and metaphorical messages
• Why Animal Farm still resonates with modern audiences
• The eerie similarities between Orwell’s story and today’s society
• How the team approached updating the material for a new generation
• What Puff and Tammy represent within the story
• Their characters’ relationship to Lucky and the shifting power dynamics on the farm
Animal Farm opens in theaters May 1, 2026.
