A curious list of suspects is investigated by an even more unusual group of woolly crime-solvers in The Sheep Detectives. The rolling green hills of George’s (Hugh Jackman) farm are the perfect home for his devoted flock. The charming shepherd has a nightly routine of reading murder mysteries to the fluffy audience, and their peaceful life is shattered when the sheep discover George dead one morning. Determined to catch their shepherd’s killer, the flock gets on the case, with some humans tagging along to help.

To complement the all-star voice cast for the sheep, we also meet a colorful cast of human characters played by actors Nick Braun, Nicholas Galitzine, Molly Gordon, Hong Chau, Emma Thompson, and more. Some of them suspicious, some of them curious, and all of them a part of a great whodunit.

Herding a voice cast for a whole flock of wooly characters is no mean feat, but there’s an additional twist to finding the right actors for The Sheep Detectives. Every sheep has its own unique personality, but the actors’ delivery and mannerisms would directly influence how their sheep would be fleshed out through animation.
