Directed by Kyle Balda, the PG-rated film features Jackman as a shepherd whose sheep, surprisingly skilled in mysteries, investigate his murder. The movie boasts a large ensemble cast, including Nicholas Braun, Emma Thompson, and voice talents like Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Bryan Cranston. Its opening weekend grossed $3.7 million, with domestic projections reaching $13.6 million. As an Amazon MGM Studios production, it's expected to go directly to Prime Video, typically 5-6 weeks post-release, suggesting an arrival between June 18 and June 24, though strong box office could extend this window.
