Ricky Baker, you are 10 years old… 🥳🥳🥳
It’s been a decade since Taika Waititi’s ‘Hunt for the Wilderpeople’ hit NZ cinemas in 2016, breaking box office records and outshining even his hit film ‘Boy’. Ricky (Julian Dennison) stole our hearts as the mischievous foster kid who fakes his own death and ends up on the adventure of a lifetime with his disgruntled uncle Hector (Sam Neill). Police, social services, and a whole lot of chaos follow, but an unlikely bond grows along the way.
🎂 To celebrate the 10th anniversary, the film is returning to cinemas nationwide over Easter in a new 4K version, with anniversary screenings kicking off from today!
Watch the full trailer via the link in bio, and explore more from the mastermind behind the film in the Taika Waititi Collection.
