‘Nut Job 2’ Planned for 2016 Release

The successful release last weekend of The Nut Job has earned the indie animated feature a sequel.

Partners Open Road Films, Redrover Co., Toonbox and Gulfstream Pictures have announced The Nut Job 2 will open in theaters Jan. 15, 2016.

“We couldn’t be more thrilled about The Nut Job,” said Tom Ortenberg, CEO of Open Road Films. “It has been a pleasure working with the teams at Redrover, ToonBox and Gulfstream and we are delighted to re-team with them for The Nut Job 2.”
