Hitting theaters May 8, The Sheep Detectives is a quirky mystery-comedy that turns a quiet countryside into the scene of an unexpected whodunit. When a beloved shepherd (Hugh Jackman) is found dead, his flock – who have secretly been absorbing the detective stories he reads aloud to them each night – step in to solve the case themselves. As they follow clues and investigate the humans around them, the unlikely detectives prove they may be smarter than anyone suspected. Blending humor, charm and a touch of suspense, the film offers a fresh and delightfully offbeat take on the classic murder mystery.
