Granitoons: The Movie is a feature-length film, a mixture of animation and live-action, based on the Granitoons comic series, expected to be released in British cinemas in 2014. It features an ensemble cast.

Dave Lamb was cast as Stan the Crow, the main character, with other roles going to Sir Patrick Stewart, Jimmy Hibbert and Teresa Gallagher. Andrew Morrice himself also makes a cameo in the movie. Danny Boyle, director of films such as Slumdog Millionaire, 127 Hours and Millions has been chosen to direct the movie, his animated directorial debut.

Plot
Stan the Crow has been evicted from Farmer Giles' farm, despite hesitation from his crow friends Shirley and Lonnie. He settles into life in the urban city, where he causes mayhem, lunacy and most certainly hilarity with his fellow Granitoons characters.
