I Heart Willie Release Date Set for Steamboat Willie Horror Movie

Hewes Pictures unveiled the planned release date for their upcoming slasher movie, titled “I Heart Willie“. This new project, which is inspired by Disney’s classic short film “Steamboat Willie”, is helmed by director Alejandro G. Alegre in the horror genre.

Two well-known YouTubers, Daniel and Nico, receive an invitation to explore a supposedly haunted location due to whispers of a malevolent presence. The tale revolves around a boy born with unusual features, reminiscent of a human-mouse hybrid, whose likeness is said to have inspired Walt Disney’s Steamboat Willie character. Maltreated and shunned, this boy, now infamously known as Willie, creates a suit from the hides of intruders. As time passes, his horrifying tale transforms into folklore – until a string of disappearances reignites curiosity. As Daniel and Nico prepare for an exciting night, they unwittingly enter a lethal game of survival.
