About

Synopsis

The Sheep Detectives (2026) is a family mystery-comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Director Kyle Balda — the filmmaker behind the Despicable Me trilogy — assembled one of the year's most stacked casts: Hugh Jackman plays shepherd George Hardy, who reads detective novels to his flock every night without suspecting they absorb every word.

When something strange disrupts life on the farm, the sheep launch their own investigation. The voice cast alone is remarkable: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, Brett Goldstein, Chris O'Dowd, and Rhys Darby play the sleuthing animals. On the human suspect side: Emma Thompson, Nicholas Braun, and Nicholas Galitzine. The $75 million US–UK co-production brought together Amazon MGM Studios, Lord Miller, and Working Title Films.

109 minutes, in cinemas May 6, 2026. Watch The Sheep Detectives (2026) online on iFILM.
