A third movie in the Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey is now officially in the works. The news comes quickly following the theatrical release of Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2, with Variety revealing that Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3 will have an even “bigger budget” that this year’s follow-up. Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3 will also introduce several more beloved characters from the world of A.A. Milne, with Rabbit and the heffalumps due to be twisted and warped into nightmarish creations alongside the likes of Pooh, Piglet, and Tigger.
The announcement that Jagged Edge Pictures, Rhys Frake-Waterfield, and Scott Chambers will continue to cover the childhoods of many in blood and gore in Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 3 comes amid the sequel’s release, with the movie now playing as part of a three-day theatrical run.
Winnie the Pooh Horror Star Says Third Movie Is Coming; Talks Gore & Savage Tigger
In an exclusive chat with MovieWeb, terrifying tigger actor Lewis Santer reveals that Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 3 is in the works.
The threequel will also no doubt be part of the newly announced ‘Poohniverse,’ which will bring together the likes of Blood and Honey’s Pooh and Piglet alongside horror versions of Bambi, Pinocchio, Peter Pan and more for the crossover event movie Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble.
“Similar to The Avengers, we will follow Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Owl, Piglet, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty, Bambi, The Mad Hatter, Peter Pan and Tinkerbell joining forces to wreak havoc,” said Frake-Waterfield about the crossover. “We are working with a larger scale budget on this one and are excited for what the future will hold. When you see stand-alone movies, you will see the Easter eggs hinting toward the crossover. Some of the villains also will not see eye to eye, which will allow for some carnage within the group in some epic sequences of monster vs monster.”

Directed once again by Rhys Frake-Waterfield and written by Matt Leslie, Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 takes a meta approach to the first movie while adding the likes of Tigger and Owl alongside Pooh and Piglet. You can check out the offiical synopsis for Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 below.
“Deep within the 100-Acre-Wood, a destructive rage grows as Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Owl, and Tigger find their home and their lives endangered after Christopher Robin revealed their existence. Not wanting to live in the shadows any longer, the group decides to take the fight to the town of Ashdown, home of Christopher Robin, leaving a bloody trail of death and mayhem in their wake. Winnie and his savage friends will show everyone that they are deadlier, stronger and smarter than anyone could ever imagine and get their revenge on Christopher Robin, once and for all.”
Much like its predecessor, the horror sequel comes as a result of A. A. Milne and E. H. Shepard’s Winnie-the-Pooh now being in the public domain. The movie stars Scott Chambers as Christopher Robin, and Ryan Oliva as Winnie the Pooh, with Tallulah Evans, Teresa Banham, Peter DeSouza-Feighoney, Alec Newman, and Simon Callow in supporting roles.
While Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 was initially met with an unbelievable rating of 100% on the review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes, normality has now resumed, with the horror movie currently sitting at 53% with 19 reviews. The audience score, however, is notably much higher at 82%.
