Meet Xavier the Movie-Buff Lemur in New Preview for Clive Barker’s ‘Night of the Zoopocalypse’

A new Night of the Zoopocalypse character spotlight introduces Xavier. Meet the movie-buff lemur in the video below.

Inspired by a concept from master of horror Clive Barker, who serves as executive producer, the animated film escapes into theaters on March 7 from Viva Pictures.

When chaos breaks loose at Colepepper Zoo, clever young wolf Gracie must team up with tough but softhearted mountain lion Dan to survive. With a ragtag crew—including Xavier the movie-buff lemur, Frida the fearless capybara, and Poot, the tiniest (but mightiest) pygmy hippo—these unlikely heroes must outwit a horde of zombie animals and reclaim their home.

Veteran animators and story artists Ricardo Curtis (The Incredibles) and Rodrigo Perez-Castro (The Book of Life) co-direct from a script by James Kee (A Christmas Horror Story) and producer Steven Hoban (Cube, Ginger Snaps).

David Harbour (“Stranger Things”), Scott Thompson (“The Kids in the Hall”), Paul Sun-Hyung Lee (“The Mandalorian”), and Gabbi Kosmidis (“Unicorn Academy”) lead the voice cast.

Night of the Zoopocalypse is rated PG for action/peril and scary images throughout.

For those in the UK, the film is expected to be released this Halloween season from Kazoo Films.
