A musical movie with animated characters such as bras, 'boobies' and ball sacks is on its way.

There's a new animated film making waves in the industry, and it's called Spermageddon. Yes, you read that right. This musical comedy features anthropomorphic sperm with a catchy tune called "In the Ball Sack". And believe it or not, it already has a perfect rating of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes from critics who were lucky enough to catch its first previews.

Directed by Tommy Wirkola and Rasmus A. Sivertsen, Spermageddon is being described as a crude and heartwarming take on Disney's blockbuster franchise Inside Out. But don't let the quirky title fool you, this film tackles some serious topics. It follows the story of nerdy teen Jens as he navigates the awkwardness of his first sexual experience while also introducing us to two of his named sperm, Simen and Cumilla, who are on a mission to fertilize an egg.

Despite its adult themes, Spermageddon is not an R-rated film. The filmmakers wanted to appeal to a younger audience, but they did take inspiration from more mature animated films like Sausage Party and South Park. The movie even premiered at the prestigious Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June and is set to be released in its native Norway in January 2025.

In a clip shared exclusively with Variety, we see Jens in his first sexual encounter with Lisa. As she takes off her shirt, Jens is mesmerized by her chest while his sperm inside his body frantically rush to the "ejaculation ramp" with alarms blaring. But when Lisa asks for help taking off her bra, things take a comical turn as Jens accidentally whips himself in the eye with the backstrap.

Wirkola admitted that he sometimes couldn't believe they actually got Spermageddon made. "When we finally got to make it, there were times when I was looking at the screen, thinking: 'How the hell did we get this movie made?!'" he said. But the simple answer, according to him, is that they made it in Europe, where topics like sex are less taboo.

The filmmakers want to strike a balance between the innocence of youth and the reality of being exposed to sexual imagery and pornography. And while the film is aimed at a younger audience, it also tackles important topics like safe sex and pro-choice arguments. In fact, The Hollywood Reporter praised the film's open-minded politics and noted that they likely would not fly in the more conservative United States.

Spermageddon may have yet to strike a deal with a British distributor, but it has already garnered a perfect 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have described it as hilarious, heartwarming, vulgar, and insolent - all in the right ways. And for those wondering, yes, there are even musical numbers with hundreds of little sperm cells dancing in unison, like a Busby Berkeley number staged inside a condom.

So mark your calendars because Spermageddon is set to release in Norway in January 2025, and we can only hope that it will make its way to other countries soon. But until then, we'll have to wait and see if this quirky and bold film can strike a deal with a distributor in the UK. Who knows, maybe we'll even get to see it sooner than expected. After all, anything is possible in the world of animation.
