Winnie The Pooh Blood And Honey Gets Expanded Theatrical Run

You’ll have more opportunities to catch Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey on the big screen. Previously, it had been announced that Fathom Events would be hosting theatrical screenings of the anticipated horror film for a single day only, set for Feb. 15, 2023. But as we draw nearer to that date, the anticipation for the film has only grown, and noticing the increased demand for more screenings, more dates have been added to give Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey a longer run on the big screen. With screenings available in more than 1,500 theaters, the film will now screen from Wednesday, Feb. 15 through Monday, Feb. 23.

“We have been overwhelmed with the enthusiastic response from the public," executive producer Stuart Alson said in a statement, per Bloody Disgusting. “From top media companies ranging from Rolling Stone magazine to USA Today to TMZ to individual comments on Reddit and YouTube—the world is craving Blood and Honey, and we’re thrilled to be teaming up with Fathom to deliver Winnie the Pooh as never seen before.”

Winnie the Pooh is written and directed by Rhys Frake-Waterfield, though it’s a spoof of the original Winnie-the-Pooh books by A. A. Milne and E. H. Shepard. The film stars Natasha Tosini, Amber Doig-Thorne, Richard D. Myers, Craig David Dowsett, Chris Cordell, and Nikolai Leon.

This film is obviously nothing like the incarnations we’ve seen of Winnie-the-Pooh from Disney. The official synopsis for the horror parody film reads:
