An update for fans of the Ludo Studio Heeler family’s future adventures on Disney+ and beyond.
It’s been a big year for Bluey, the beloved Australian animated series about the Heeler dog family’s whimsical adventures. While there has not been a new episode since 2024 after the season three finale, “The Sign,” its coda, “Surprise,” and a batch of mini-sodes, the BBC and Disney+-distributed franchise from Ludo Studio keeps dominating viewership charts—and the hearts of fans, young and young at heart.
Bluey is poised to potentially become the most streamed show of the year once again. It held the number one spot on the Nielsen streaming charts in 2024, and its fandom is only growing larger for real life as audiences eagerly await the feature film coming in 2027. It speaks to the power of the pop culture phenomenon that families and childless adults have embraced thanks to the cartoon’s incredibly heartfelt and imaginative childhood tales. Whether you have kids or not, we’ve all been Bluey and Bingo’s age, and the show really hits that nostalgia for the days when we didn’t have a care in the big wide world.
Personally, as a parent who started out as a fan before kids came along, it hits differently now and feels like a reassuring friend in the baby trenches. Like many, I hang on to every news break relating to what’s next with Bluey, and with that in mind, here’s an update on the franchise’s presence this holiday season and what’s coming up next before Bluey: The Movie hits theaters in 2027.Will there be new Bluey on TV?
Besides streaming on Disney+ and on the official Bluey YouTube, there are no announced new minisodes or an additional season before Ludo Studio releases Bluey: The Movie on August 6, 2027. Yeah, that’s essentially over a year of no full-length content outside of showrunner-writer Joe Brumm and Team Bluey being hard at work on the film. In a letter released in 2024, Brumm announced the feature would be his last contribution to the show he created but remarked that Bluey would continue without him.
If you want to see Bluey on the television screen sooner, there’s always the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. If you missed it on NBC (it aired live in the morning before this post was published on Thursday, November 27), you can stream it on Peacock after the fact. Fans will be able to see Bluey featured as part of the balloons floating above spectators on the streets of New York City for the iconic parade, with her sister Bingo and cousin Muffin likely making an appearance like they did last year.
