Development
The idea of a feature film based on My Little Pony: Equestria Girls was pitched to Paramount Pictures after Paramount had given the distribution rights to My Little Pony: A New Generation to Netflix due to the complications between the COVID-19 pandemic. The film was written to take place after the series with the characters graduating. The film would also introduce Sugar Belle into the Equestria Girls universe due to her not appearing in the prior media.
