Amazon MGM Studios has locked in a starry cast for Three Bags Full: A Sheep Detective Movie, a live-action comedy directed by animation veteran Kyle Balda (Minions: The Rise of Gru).
Hugh Jackman (The Greatest Showman) leads an ensemble that also includes Emma Thompson (Matilda the Musical), Nicholas Braun (Succession), Nicholas Galitzine (The Idea of You), Molly Gordon (Theater Camp), Hong Chau (The Whale), Tosin Cole (Supacell), Kobna Holdbrook-Smith (Wonka), Conleth Hill (Game of Thrones) and Mandeep Dhillon (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker).
