Winnie the Pooh (2011 film)

Winnie the Pooh is a 2011 American animated musical comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It is based on the book series by A. A. Milne and is a revival of Disney's Winnie the Pooh franchise. It was directed by Stephen Anderson and Don Hall.

Jim Cummings reprises his voice roles as Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, and Travis Oates reprises his voice role as Piglet. The voice cast also includes Tom Kenny, Craig Ferguson, Bud Luckey, and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. In the film, which is narrated by John Cleese, the residents of the Hundred Acre Wood embark on a quest to save Christopher Robin from an imaginary culprit, while Pooh deals with a hunger for honey.

Production began in September 2008 with Disney Animation's chief creative officer John Lasseter announcing that Disney wanted to create a film that would "transcend generations". The film was planned to feature five stories from the A. A. Milne books, before the final cut ended up drawing inspiration from three stories. The film features six songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez and a score composed by Henry Jackman, as well as a rendition of the Sherman Brothers' "Winnie the Pooh" theme song by actress and musician Zooey Deschanel.

Winnie the Pooh premiered at the Roy E. Disney Animation Building in Burbank, California on July 10, 2011, and was released in the United States on July 15. The film grossed $50.1 million on a $30 million budget and received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the animation style but criticized its short runtime. As of 2025, it is Disney Animation's most recent traditionally animated theatrical feature film.
