The Sheep Detectives

A new breed of mystery.

Directed by Kyle Balda

FilmDrops says

It’s a herder mystery, and everyone is a suspect. The Sheep Detectives arrives in theaters May 2026.

In this witty, new breed of mystery, George (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads detective novels to his beloved sheep every night, assuming they can’t possibly understand. But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realize they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.
