‘Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey’ has already hit theaters

The year 2023 started off on the right foot for the horror genre, with releases like “Terrifier 2” or “M3GAN”. However, one of the most anticipated by fans was ‘Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey’, which is already available in Mexican cinemas since January 26 in some of the most famous chains in the country. .

It is worth mentioning that ‘Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey’ is possible, as the rights to the characters have fallen into the public domain, but only those of AA Milne, as those of Disney still belong to the company.

Waterfield and the production company behind “Winnie the Pooh: BH” have said that the format of adapting children’s characters in horror films will not end there and have confirmed that they will also make animated and family-friendly icon horror films, such as are Peter Pan and Bambi, which they will carry for years to come.
