Yep and apparently the people behind them are building to an "Avengers" style event movie..... The makers of Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey are doubling down on their fairytale-turned-horror-movie universe with an Avengers-esque tie-in movie called Poohniverse: Monsters Assemble. Jagged Edge Productions and ITN Studios say their crossover event plans are real and set to terrify with a 2025 release window. The companies promise that the film will bring their horror movie villains together to tell a story that sees them “join forces to takedown the world,” and it's all part of a grand cinematic scheme they're calling The Twisted Childhood Universe.

We would love to see a horror movie where the villains group together and are going after their survivors.
