20th Century Studios along with Locksmith Animation shared the trailer today for the upcoming film, Ron's Gone Wrong.  Ron's Gone Wrong is scheduled to release Fall 2021 to theaters.  Check out the trailer here:

This movie looks super cute!  Ron's Gone Wrong looks to have laughs throughout to keep kids entertained and I think there will be some pointed satirical moments commenting on how kids have a device as a best friend.  The voice cast is stellar and has such comedic talent as Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms.  As a mom with a rising 4th grader, I'm starting to see my own son relate more to these pre-teen and tween movies.  Barney, the main character of the movie, is starting middle school and struggling to figure out his own friendships and how he fits in - not unlike a lot of kids.  Ron's Gone Wrong looks relatable, funny, and heartfelt.  Don't miss it in theaters October 2021!
