The beloved blue creatures are back! A new “Smurfs” movie is on the horizon, and global music icon Rihanna is stepping into the role of Smurfette. This marks the latest iteration of the iconic character, following in the footsteps of Katy Perry and Demi Lovato, who voiced Smurfette in previous films.
The 2025 “Smurfs” movie draws inspiration from the original comics by Belgian artist Peyo and once again transports the Smurfs from their tranquil village to the human world. This time around, they embark on a mission to rescue Papa Smurf, voiced by John Goodman, who has been kidnapped by the nefarious wizards Gargamel and Razamel. Their quest takes them to the vibrant city of Paris, where they join forces with Papa Smurf’s brother, portrayed by Nick Offerman.
The newly released trailer offers a glimpse into this blue-tinged adventure, showcasing Rihanna’s Smurfette, a peculiar influencer Smurf, and a host of other Smurfy characters. The trailer emphasizes the return of the Smurfs to the real world, promising a blend of humor, heartwarming moments, and plenty of “smurfing” action.
Rihanna’s involvement adds star power to the project, and her take on Smurfette is sure to bring a fresh dynamic to the character. The film’s setting in Paris also provides an exciting backdrop for the Smurfs’ antics, promising a visually rich and engaging experience.
While the plot centers on the rescue of Papa Smurf, the trailer also hints at broader themes of family, courage, and the importance of helping others. The “Smurfs” franchise has always been known for its wholesome messages, and the 2025 movie appears to continue this tradition.
For fans of the Smurfs, this new movie promises a nostalgic trip back to the whimsical world of these blue creatures. For newer audiences, it offers an introduction to the Smurfs’ enduring charm and their ability to find adventure and humor in any situation. With Rihanna at the helm, the 2025 “Smurfs” movie is poised to capture the hearts of audiences of all ages.
