Hilda and the Lost Ring/Trivia

The trivia for the 2022 film Hilda and the Lost Ring.

Trivia

 * This is the first animated Hilda media, outside of the graphic novels and novelization, to not be released exclusively on Netflix. Luke Pearson said that the only reason they released the film theatrically and not on Netflix is because of some people not being able to afford Netflix.
 * He also said that it was because films had a better theatrical response.
 * Despite not having a supporting role in the film, Trevor appears in a cameo. He was originally going to have a minor role, but was cut due to Reece Pockney, the voice actor of Trevor, being busy at the time.
 * A deleted scene shows Alex giving an interview in a news broadcast, and warns everyone about an apocalypse before the broadcast was cut off shortly afterwards. This scene was cut due to possibly promoting fake news.
 * Despite not making it onto the film, it was added onto the extended cut of the film, which are exclusively on Blu-Ray and 4K UHD formats.
 * Another deleted scene shows Hilda taking over Alex's position as cashier, handling customers. This time, the scene was cut for time restraints.
 * Around midway through the film, Hilda breaks the fourth wall by mentioning that she remembered turning into a troll at one point, but also thinks it was just the writers messing with her head. This is a reference to the season 2 finale of Hilda, "The Stone Forest", where Hilda turned into a troll at the end of the episode, as well as showing the film's non-canonical nature in the area franchise.
 * This film marks John Hasler's first major theatrical film role, not counting the Thomas & Friends and Fireman Sam films.
 * The Keeper of the Bell was originally set to appear in the beginning of the film, but he was cut for unknown reasons.
 * Even though he did not appear in the beginning, he still appears as a cameo appearance in the end.
 * Since the film was released in 2022, it was released on Netflix 45 days after its theatrical release, as part of the Sony Pictures-Netflix deal the two companies signed in April of 2021.
