Further detailing their characters, Waterfield added, "Because they've had to fend for themselves so much, they've essentially become feral ... So they've gone back to their animal roots. They're no longer tame: they're like a vicious bear and pig who want to go around and try and find prey."

In another appearance on Dread Central's Development Hell podcast, the filmmaker mentioned that they planned to 'go even more crazy' and extreme to ramp up things. "I've got lots of twisted and dark thoughts on what I want to put Pooh and Piglet through and what scenarios I want to put them in," the director stated. 

Craig David Dowsett will be seen as Winnie the Pooh, while Nikolei Leon will take on the role of Christopher Robin. Apart from the duo, Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey stars Chris Cordell as Piglet, Natasha Tosini, Amber Doig-Thorne, Maria Taylor, Jase Rivers, Simon Ellis, May Kelly and more. The film's release date hasn't been finalised yet.
