Spermageddon is an upcoming Norwegian adult computer-animated musical comedy film directed by Tommy Wirkola and Rasmus A. Sivertsen. The film consists of two plot lines, one focusing on a teenage couple having sex for the first time, and the other on Simon the Semen and his friends in quest for the Egg.[2][3]

The film has been reported to be "in the veins of Sausage Party" and described by Wirkola as "both a road movie and an epic adventure ... much like Lord of the Rings".[2] Producer Kjetil Omberg likened it to South Park and Checkered Ninja, saying it targets "elder kids and adults".[1]

Production

In June 2021, the production was reported to begin "in the fall".[1] It was in production as of May 2022.[4]

Release

Spermageddon is set for release in 2024 by Nordisk Film.[1][5] It was being sold for local distributors at the Marché du Film of the 2022 Cannes Film Festival by the international sales agent Charades.[4][6]
