Ever wondered if fairy tales could take a hilariously wrong turn? "Happily N'Ever After" dares to flip the script, offering a comedic twist on the classic "happily ever after" we've all come to expect. The animated film, directed by Paul J. Bolger, Yvette Kaplan, Greg Tiernan, and Dino Athanassiou, throws beloved fairy tale characters into a topsy-turvy world where things don't always go as planned.
Released by Lions Gate Films, this Vanguard Animation production first graced screens on December 29, 2006, and later on January 5, 2007. Inspired by the tales of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen, and loosely based on the German television series "Simsala Grimm," the film presents a world where the delicate balance between good and evil is threatened. The title itself, "Happily N'Ever After," is a playful jab at the traditional fairy tale ending, setting the stage for a story where things are far from certain.
