Bob’s Burgers: The Movie Release Date and Where You Can Watch It

What is Bob’s Burgers: The Movie About?
After the announcement of the film, series creator Loren Bouchard said:
“We’re thrilled to be invited to bring Bob’s Burgers to the big screen. We know the movie has to scratch every itch the fans of the show have ever had, but it also has to work for all the good people who’ve never seen the show. We also know it has to fill every inch of the screen with the colors and the sounds and the ever so slightly greasy texture of the world of Bob’s, but most of all it has to take our characters on an epic adventure. In other words, it has to be the best movie ever made. But no pressure, right?”
The official “Bob’s Burgers” Twitter account gave a look at the poster, with the hairy arm of Bob Belcher flipping a burger patty in front of the distinctive yellow background.

Nothing has been revealed regarding the plot of “Bob’s Burgers: The Movie,” but we do know for sure that the film will feature musical numbers just like the series. Additionally, Bouchard mentioned at San Diego Comic-Con 2018 that the film will include Louise reuniting with her precious Kuchi Kopi, leading many to speculate that the fever dream fantasy world of Kuchi Kopi, as seen in the episode “Flu-ouise,” will show up as at least a minor subplot.

Bob’s Burgers: The Movie Director, Crew, and More
Bob’s Burgers: The Movie Cast
The standard voice cast has all been announced, with H. Jon Benjamin as Bob Belcher, John Roberts as Linda Belcher, Dan Mintz as Tina Belcher, Eugene Mirman as Gene Belcher, Kristen Schaal as Louise Belcher, Larry Murphy as Teddy, and Sam Seder as Hugo. In an interview with Observer, star H. Jon Benjamin confirmed that work on the film was being done remotely due to COVID-19 and that voice recording had also begun. There’s no word on whether or not we’ll see the usual co-stars like Tammy, The Pesto Family, Zeke, Mr. Fischoeder, Regular Sized Rudy, or Aunt Gayle, but it’s hard to imagine they’d make a movie without them.
Here’s hoping we get an appearance by my girl Marshmallow with her new voice actor.
