World Premiere.

An animation delight produced in Brisbane, Combat Wombat: Back 2 Back follows caped crusader Maggie Diggins (Deborah Mailman) and trusty side-kick Sweetie (Ed Oxenbould, Paper Planes), who face dastardly tech genius Lenny Glick, voiced by David Wenham (Lord of The Rings). 

Life has become a little too demanding for Maggie Diggins aka Combat Wombat. Whilst the Sanctuary City crime rate is at an all-time low, she’s now expected to spend her days helping unclog drains and filing tax returns instead of saving the world. This isn’t what she signed up for! When an evil tech genius threatens to trap the whole city in a ‘perfect’ metaverse simulation, Maggie and Sweetie must work together to save the day once again, but will this be the dynamic duos’ last hurrah? 

Join the filmmakers and special guests from the cast including Ed Oxenbould, Grant Denyer, Elizabeth Cullen and Mark Coles Smith for this special World premiere screening.
