Moominvalley trailer: Coming Soon To Sky One & Sky Kids

Your support helps us to tell the story

This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.

The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.

Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.

The first trailer has been released for Sky One’s Moominvalley.

The new animated series is based on the Moomin stories by Finnish-Swedish writer-illustrator Tove Jansson and will feature a blend of 2D and 3D animation techniques.

Set to air this Easter, the series will feature 13 22-minute episodes. It was created by Marika Makaroff and Steve Box, the latter winning an Academy Award for Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

The voice cast includes Taron Egerton (Moomintroll), Rosamund Pike (Moominmamma), Matt Berry (Moominpappa), Bel Powley (Little My), Warwick Davis (Sniff), Joe Wilkinson (Hemulen-Male), Kate Winslet (Mrs Fillyjonk), and Jennifer Saunders (Mymble).

Also featured are Alison Steadman (Emma the Stage Rat), Will Self (The Muskrat), Richard Ayoade (The Ghost) Akiya Henry (Snorkmaiden), Edvin Endre (Snufkin), Mayumi Kawai (Ninny), Matt Lucas (Teety-Woo), Katie Leung (Too-Ticky), Rebecca Root (Misabel), Susie Brann (Hemulen -Female), and Joe Wilkinson (Hemulen-Male).

Moominvalley will be available on Sky One, Sky Kids and NOW TV.
