Cocomelon Invades the Cinema: When Parents Lost Their Last Stronghold
Just when you thought you could escape from Baby Shark and company, comes the news that will make parents around the world tremble: Cocomelon is leaping to the big screen. DreamWorks Animation, in a move some will call brave and others desperate, is producing the first feature film of these characters that have colonized more devices than the most persistent malware.
The Production Team Sounds Like a Bad Joke
Behind this project is an alliance that seems straight out of a spy movie:
- DreamWorks: the ones who made us cry with Shrek
- Universal Pictures: because someone had to pay the bill
- Moonbug Entertainment: the owners of this money-making machine
- DNEG Animation: so the graphics don't look like they were made in Paint
From YouTube to the Big Screen: The Epic Journey of a Baby Who Never Grows Up and Always Sings
From Home Video to Multimedia Empire
What started in 2006 as a YouTube channel with a random username (ThatsMEonTV, seriously) has become:
- 200 billion views (yes, with a B)
- A franchise valued at 3 billion dollars
- Series on Netflix, toys, clothes, and live shows
- Now, a movie that promises to be the new background noise in theaters
What Awaits Us in 2027 (and Beyond)
With the premiere scheduled for 2027, parents have time to:
- Learn the songs by heart (just in case)
- Buy stock in coffee companies
- Prepare creative excuses not to take the kids to the movies
And in the meantime, JJ will remain that eternal baby who sings, dances, and proves that in the world of children's entertainment, repetition isn't a problem, it's a business model. Who needs originality when you have a catchy song and a captive audience that still doesn't know how to use the remote control? 🎵
