On 6 May 2015 it was announced that StudioCanal would finance the $50 million budgeted stop-motion animated film Early Man and would handle its sales.[5] It would re-team StudioCanal with Aardman Animations and Nick Park, about a caveman who traces the world's first game of soccer.[5] On 9 May 2016, while the film was in-production, the studio released its first image and revealed that Eddie Redmayne would provide the lead voice for character Dug.[4][6] The British Film Institute is also a partner on the film.[7]
