The film, directed by Kelly Asbury, will mark a brand new, fully-animated take on the beloved blue creatures.
Speaking about how different this movie will be from the previous two installments, Asbury said in the 'Smurf's blogpost, "Sony Pictures Animation's previous two SMURFS movies were live action films in which real humans interacted with more realistically designed and animated Smurfs, and the stories centered as much around the human characters' issues. SMURFS: THE LOST VILLAGE has nothing to do with those other films. It is a radically different take on the Smurfs and their imaginary world, fully computer animated, and much closer to the tone and style that creator Peyo initially envisioned."
This fully-animated feature will open in cinemas on April 7, 2017.
