Production
The movie was first announced in February 2015 during the Cartoon Network upfront. Series creator Pendleton Ward announced on November 4, 2016 via Twitter that production of the movie has been completed. A trailer for the movie was shown at the 2016 Comic Con International event on January 6, 2017 and was later released online on January 7, 2017. Despite the movie being announced in November 2016 it began production in 2015.

During production of the fourth season, the network asked the creator if they'd like to do a fifty-minute special episode, Pendleton Ward turned it down and asked to do a movie instead, the network agreed. The idea was then put into development.

Ward confirmed that the movie is canon and is set in the middle of season seven and season eight.

The eighth season of Adventure Time was affected by the movie. It was set to have 40 episodes, but due to the production of the movie, only 31 were produced. Season eight will feature the regular 40 episodes per season.

Theatrical release
Adventure Time: The Kingdom of Ooo was originally set to be released in North America as a made-for-television film in Fall 2017, while having a theatrical release in Europe.
