ROBLOX: The Movie

"The world was not always a friendly place."

- Tagline for the film.

Roblox: The Movie (also referred to as The Roblox Movie, or Roblox Movie) is an upcoming computer-animated film produced by Illumination and Roblox Pictures, and distributed by Universal Pictures. It is a feature film adaptation of the 2006 video game, Roblox. The film is directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic from a screenplay by Matthew Fogel and features an ensemble voice cast including Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day, Jack Black, Keegan-Michael Key, Seth Rogen, Fred Armisen, Kevin Michael Richardson, Sebastian Maniscalco, and John Shedletsky.

Due to the fact that Roblox has no direct plot, they were reluctant to license their game for a film adaptation. However, Roblox creator David Baszucki became interested in developing a Roblox film when he saw many fan-made Roblox short films on various video-sharing platforms, and through Roblox's work with Universal Parks & Resorts to create Roblox-based attractions, he met Illumination founder Chris Meledandri. By 2016, the two were discussing a Roblox film, and in January 2018, Roblox announced that they would collaborate with Illumination and Universal to produce it. Production was underway by 2020.

The film is scheduled to be released on November 1st, 2023.
