    This movie’s already out in Canada. Well technically it is on in a movie festival. Haven’t seen it though.

    It is to be released in the UK and Ireland on 29th June 2018. I don't know dates for other territories. :)

    Besides my love of visiting hundreds of zoos, I've always been crazy for movies and I regularly watch 400 films per year. I'll be there in a heartbeat if Zoo opens anywhere near where I live.

    That would explain it. It was on at the Tiff (Toronto International Film Festival) kids festival.

    Surprised there hasn't been a film about London Zoo during WW2 unless there has been already. Wonder if they made any stupid animal related decisions like Churchill did with his platypus :p

    What happened with Churchill and the platypus?

    Never thought I’d ask that question:p
