Fireman Sam: Hollywood Hero/Trivia

This is the first unlimited theatrical outing for Fireman Sam. The previous three movies only had limited theatrical screenings.

This is one of the rarest moments where Norman Price doesn't appear at all and Derek Price takes his spot. This is also the first special where Norman Price doesn't appear.

Fireman Sam's as-yet-unnamed temporary replacement is a comedic parody of Wilf from the 2014 British animated decent hit Postman Pat: the Movie. Although, in order for this film to not look too similar to the Postman Pat movie, this character has Norman Price's personality mixed in with Wilf's agnorance, and he look younger and nicer. He also has strawberry blonde hair, a Parasian accent, and has no soul patch. He also wears his firefighting outfit throughout.

This film is based on the potential 2018 film The Fireman Sam Movie, which has a similar plot and characters, but is about singing rather than film acting.

If the running time for this film is officially 60 minutes, then it'll be the shortest theatrical film of 2018.

This is the first film to be animated by DHX Media themselves. They previously animated New Fireman Sam.

This film is still in production due to a change in animation studios (from Xing-Xing to DHX Halifax Studios). That means that the trailer and the final character designs of the new characters and their voice actors will be revealed later.

In most international language versions of this film, Flex Dexter's name was changed to "Felix".

This is the second time a Doctor Who star voices a villian in a Fireman Sam film (John Barrowman as Flex Dexter). The first time was when David Tennant voiced Buck Douglas in Fireman Sam: Alien Alert, although Buck Douglas didn't act like a real villian, as he was friends with Fireman Sam and he has a nice and cheerful personality.
