What happens
Ladybug & Cat Noir: The Movie (French: Miraculous, le film), also titled Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir, The Movie in some territories, is a 2023 French animated musical romantic magical girl superhero film directed, co-written, and scored by Jeremy Zag. It is an adaptation of the animated television series Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir, and follows two Parisian teenagers, Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Adrien Agreste, who transform into the superheroes Ladybug and Cat Noir, respectively, to protect the city from supervillains led by Hawk Moth. The film was announced in 2018, but production began in 2019, with confirmation that the plot will explore the origins of the franchise. Jeremy Zag was confirmed as director and co-wrote the screenplay with Bettina Lopez Mendoza. Zag also serves as a producer through ZAG, Inc. with Mediawan, both under The Awakening Production banner, with SND, the latter also serving as distributor. The film was animated by Mediawan's ON Animation Studios in Montreal, Canada. On a budget of €80 million, it is currently the second most expensive French film ever made. Ladybug & Cat Noir: The Movie premiered at the Grand Rex on 11 June 2023, and was released in France on 5 July 2023, by SND. Internationally, it was released theatrically from the same date onwards in select regions, and was released on 28 July 2023 on Netflix in others. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the animation, soundtrack, and action sequences, but criticized the simplistic screenplay, humor and story. It grossed $40.1 million worldwide. While performing well in some European countries due to the popularity of the franchise, it was considered a box-office disappointment in France. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
