A new ‘The Smurfs’ movie is coming in 2025!
The Smurfs 3 is a proposed third installment in the live-action/CGI animated Smurfs franchise. The announcement was made about two weeks after The Smurfs 2 was released in theaters. It was originally set for a release in 2015 but was cancelled. Both movies made over 70% of their worldwide grosses from international markets.

Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation were already developing a script for The Smurfs 3 with writers Karey Kirkpatrick and Chris Poche.
The third film “might actually deal with the genuine origin of how all these characters ran into each other way back when.”

“The Smurfs 3” is set to bring a fresh adventure to fans of the little blue creatures, with new characters, exciting locations, and plenty of humor and heartwarming moments. This time, the Smurfs find themselves on a journey beyond their enchanted forest, discovering a hidden Smurf tribe with unique abilities and personalities. As usual, they face challenges from the evil wizard Gargamel, who has a new plan to capture the Smurfs and harness their magical essence.

Expect more stunning animation, colorful landscapes, and catchy music, aimed at delivering a film that’s enjoyable for both young audiences and nostalgic fans. The adventure emphasizes themes of teamwork, family, and embracing differences, promising a story with both emotional depth and plenty of laughs. Keep an eye out for the official trailer, which should give more glimpses into the new storyline, characters, and visual surprises that await in “The Smurfs 3.”
