SMURFS which was released in cinemas across Egypt on July 16th, offers a fresh reimagining of the beloved blue characters, blending heartfelt storytelling, stunning visuals, and exciting new worlds.
Produced by Paramount Animation and brought to audiences by Four Star Films, the film follows the Smurfs as they set out on a daring mission after Papa Smurf (John Goodman) is mysteriously taken by the evil wizards Razamel and Gargamel. Smurfette (Rihanna) leads the team into the real world to save him.

SMURFS features an all-star voice cast that includes Rihanna, James Corden, Nick Offerman, JP Karliak, Daniel Levy, Amy Sedaris, Natasha Lyonne, Sandra Oh, Octavia Spencer, Nick Kroll, Hannah Waddingham, Alex Winter, Maya Erskine, Billie Lourd, and Xolo Maridueña, with Kurt Russell and John Goodman. Together, they bring Peyo’s timeless characters to life for a new generation, balancing humor, heart, and high-energy adventure.
Rihanna’s casting as Smurfette brings fresh energy to the film. With her strong presence and natural charm, she adds a modern twist to the character while staying true to the spirit of the original series. Her performance anchors the story, giving Smurfette both warmth and strength in a film that celebrates individuality, courage, and friendship.
Visually, SMURFS is a treat. Inspired by classic 2D illustrations, the animation combines clean lines, bold colors, and dynamic lighting to create a world that feels both nostalgic and new. From its vibrant Smurf Village opening — complete with a lively song-and-dance sequence — to its playful journey through different animation styles, including stop-motion, anime, and retro video game visuals, the film is packed with creativity and fun.
