Voice Actor Sean Connolly announces numerous roles in Aardman's 'SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE'.

After nearly a year of keeping this a secret I can finally reveal that I have recorded numerous characters in the new 'SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE' for Aardman Animations and Studio Canal. Shaun is the leader of a flock of sheep who live on Mossy Bottom Farm with the ever vigilant Bitzer the Sheep Dog, The Farmer and lots of other farmyard characters. His first appearance was in Wallace & Gromit's third short, the Academy Award Winning 'A CLOSE SHAVE' in 1995. 
A 'SHAUN THE SHEEP' television series was then developed by Richard Starzak, first airing in 2007. It has gone on to be one the most successful children's programmes ever created and last year was voted the Nation’s Best Loved BBC Children’s TV Character of all time in a Radio Times poll. 

With Shaun celebrating his 20th Birthday this year it seems an appropriate way to celebrate, bringing him to the big screen for the first time. 

'SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE' is released on February 6th across the UK and then ... THE WORLD!!

A bill board featuring 'SHAUN THE SHEEP MOVIE' around the corner from voice actor Sean Connolly's daughter's school!

I was pleasantly surprised to see an enormous bill board poster of the film spring up literally around the corner from my daughter's school, in fact she saw it before I had. Of course seeing it there, made it all seem more real, very exciting!

More details to come ...
