Kiff & Barry

 is a 2026 animated musical-comedy film based on the Disney channel animated television series Kiff. It was co-written, co-produced, and directed by series creators Lucy Heavens and Nic Smal (in their feature directorial debut) and features the series' regular voice cast consisting of Kimiko Glenn, H. Michael Croner and more. In the film, Kiff and Barry team up with their friends to engage on their greatest adventure yet, after Helen and Principal Secretary get sucked into a portal leading to the multiverse. Adventures, battles, and hilarious debacles ensue, as Kiff's gang navigates the multiverse and bring their teachers back home safely before Kiff and Barry's parents catch on.

Heavens and Smal accepted an offer for a film adaptation of Kiff from Walt Disney Studios in 2024, after the show became a cultural phenomenon a year after it's first airing. They assembled a team from the show's writing staff, including themselves, and they structured the film as a mythical hero's journey that would bring the characters to new places. Although the film was intended to serve as the series finale, Disney ordered more episodes of the series as it had become increasingly profitable.

Plot
The film begins with Kiff and Barry meeting for the first time, and how they evolved into being best friends. It then cuts to present day, where they talk about the legacy they had on each other. Kiff's parents call them for dinner, and they sit down and talk about a strange phenomena that's been occurring in Table Town lately. It cuts to the next day, where they go to school.

Production
When deciding what the final plot would be, the series crew had "one that was purely an adventure film, and then one that was more of a subtle character piece". Disney liked both of them, so the result is a hybrid. Nic Smal said that there was no real difference when directing the film in comparison to a standard TV episode.

Like the series, the film's animation was provided by Titmouse Inc., with additional animation and effects by Mercury Filmworks and Yearim. All work done overseas was then digitally sent to Titmouse, where the main crew put every single shot together digitally at Walt Disney Animation Studios. The film keeps the staple look of the television series with minimal changes, with characters having more frequent shading. The backgrounds are hand-drawn with some computer-generated enhancements. The movie also went on to have some minor edits in pacing for the final cut, but "nothing so disastrous that it affected the final film", according to McCracken. It was noted that promotion for the film was rather limited when compared to that of other animated films from the same year. However, Heavens and Smal said that Disney was putting $30 million into promoting the film. Some of the production process was also documented for the film's subsequent home video and streaming releases. According to the show's creators, 109 episodes of the TV series had been made up to that point, but production on the show went on hiatus to focus on the making of the movie.

The film started pre-production in February 2024, and the film's final script was finished in January 2025, and animation production began shortly after.
