There is great news for fans of Upin & Ipin on TV! The adorable twins are hitting the big screen. “Upin & Ipin: The Lone Gibbon Kris” is set to be screened this August 28 in Philippine cinemas.

Watch the trailer here:


“Upin & Ipin: The Lone Gibbon Kris” is tagged as the most expensive Malaysian film in history reaching almost RM 20 million ($4.84 million USD). It roughly took five years for the animated sequel to finish the production. Executive producer Burhanuddin Radzi ensures that their latest masterpiece could follow the same quality of the international animated films and also elevate the standards of Malaysia’s animation industry.

The original Malay-language version was simultaneously released last March in Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei and well-received by the fans, especially in its own country as it grossed around RM25 million in just three weeks

The animated film is now the highest-grossing local animated film in Malaysian cinema. The previous holder of the record was “Incredibles 2,” which made approximately RM21.7 million in local cinemas. While the Disney•Pixar film accomplished the box-office hit in three months, Upin & Ipin just needed three weeks to beat the record.

Synopsis

“It all begins when Upin, Ipin, and their friends stumble upon a mystical keris in Tok Dalang’s storeroom that opens a portal and leads them straight into the heart of the kingdom. While trying to find their way back home to Kampung Durian Runtuh, the disoriented kids are suddenly burdened with the task of restoring the kingdom back to its former glory. With help from characters from Malaysian tales and folklore, Mat Jenin and Belalang, Upin, Ipin and their friends must overcome a series of challenging obstacles in this action-packed, magical and humorous adventure film.”
