What else do we know about the Bob the Builder movie?

It’s not yet immediately clear if the movie will go directly to Amazon Prime Video or if it will get a theatrical release.

“Roberto aka Bob (Ramos) travels to Puerto Rico for a major construction job, takes on issues affecting the island, and digs deeper into what it means to build. Bob’s journey celebrates the vibrant and colorful textures of the Caribbean Latin nations and their people,” the description reads.

Deadline also notes that Lopez is not believed to be in talks for a voiceover role in the film.

Producing the film alongside Lopez are Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas and Benny Medina, along with ShadowMachine’s Alex Bulkley and Corey Campodonico. ShadowMachine is credited as a production company on Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, which was released in 2022.
