My Little Pony” is getting ready to gallop on to the big screen in a live action feature from Amazon MGM Studios and Hasbro Entertainment, Variety has confirmed.

Based on the popular toys that date back to 1982, the ponies have cantered into numerous animated series and feature films since the 1980s. The most recent feature-length outing was “My Little Pony: A New Generation” in 2021, which became popular on Netflix after its theatrical release from Paramount was canceled due to Covid. 

This will be the first live action project for the 43-year old property, which has captivated several generations with its rainbow-hued animals with colorful neon manes and tails. The project is still in development with no creative team in place yet.

I suspect it might end up being a lot like the Sonic movies with CGI ponies interacting with the real world. 

Yeah, probably. Those movies were popular so they're probably hoping to cash in on it. I really hope it's good.

 

 

I'm mad about the end of G5 too but I don't think this movie is to blame.

It's still early. The project might fall through and never get made. Or it might end up very different from what they're thinking now.

Not too confident in the idea of a live action My Little Pony movie.

Best case is it turns out something like the Sonic movies, but even then I'm not sure studios understand why the Sonic movies were so appealing in the first place.

They should go all the way and have the characters only make real horse noises, with subtitles.

”Neigh neigh.”

”Neigh!”

Anyone remember when studios at least pretended to have original ideas? No? :confused:

Now, this might end up being a completely original story with a brand-new cast of characters. Probably not, but ya never know!  And at least some studios are exploring new ideas; just look at K-Pop Demon Hunters

I honestly don't know what to expect from this. I'm a bit tired of CGI cartoons nowadays (regardless if it's full animated or cartoon-ish characters in live-action). I would personally prefer just a 2D movie or another 2.5D movie like the 2017 one. But I understand why they don't want to use those techniques anymore. Well I just hope that the ponies will look visually appealing, even though I have no idea how exactly it will work, but I'm curious about it, so I'll be waiting for any future revealing images. Thank you for sharing this ~☆

Oh dear God. What's it gonna be? I'm really concerned :twilightoops:

I suggest relaxing until we find out more. This movie might never even get made.
