My Little Pony Gallops into Live-Action with Upcoming Movie

My Little Pony is trotting into a new medium.

The decades-old franchise — which has generated a bevy of toys, animated movies, TV shows and more since its inception — is getting the live-action treatment for the first time, Variety reports.

Per the outlet, a My Little Pony live-action feature film is on the way out of a partnership between Amazon MGM Studios and Hasbro Entertainment.

The movie’s creative team, cast and plot are still to be determined, according to Variety.

My Little Pony debuted as a line of toys in 1981, with the first film based on the franchise, My Little Pony: The Movie, premiering in 1986.

It was followed by a My Little Pony animated TV series later that same year, and then another series, My Little Pony Tales, in 1992.

The franchise had a resurgence in 2010 upon the release of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic in 2010, which was developed by Lauren Faust and ran for nine seasons.

A new My Little Pony: The Movie, based on the Friendship Is Magic characters, was released in 2017. The latest film, My Little Pony: A New Generation, hit Netflix in 2021.

2017’s My Little Pony: The Movie was the latest theatrical release in the franchise, and featured the voices of Emily Blunt, Kristin Chenoweth, Liev Schreiber and Uzo Aduba.

The animated film was a major success for Lionsgate after it earned more than $60 million at the global box office, against a $6.5 million budget.

While it’s unclear whether Faust, 50, is involved in the new live-action film, she made it clear in 2018 that she wasn’t part of My Little Pony: A New Generation.

“For anyone asking — I’m afraid I’m not involved in MLP G5,” she wrote on X (formerly Twitter) at the time. “But I am heading up a reboot of DC Super Hero Girls I hope you like just as much!”
