This week at Weebert’s World HQ, we took a little creative detour. (Okay… a big one.)
We imagined what it would be like if Weebert’s World became a full-blown movie, the sparkly premiere, the popcorn, the flashing cameras… and of course, the cast list.
Now, before we get carried away (again), let us be absolutely clear:
This is just for fun.
We’re not in pre-production. No one’s been called. No agents have been hounded.
We haven’t promised anything to anyone (though Weebert may have left a voicemail for Brian Blessed).
But we couldn’t resist wondering…
If Weebert’s World really were a movie, who would voice the characters?
Here’s our dream cast, just between us:
🧡 Weebert
The curious little robot who started it all. Scrap-built, spark-eyed, and endlessly inventive.
We’d love to give this role to a currently unknown young actor — full of wonder and charm.
🧡 Tweebert
Weebert’s little sister — cheeky, fearless, and faster with comebacks than her wheels.
Also likely to be played by a brand-new voice talent. Got a suggestion? We’re all ears.
🐑 Barbara the flying sheep – Dawn French
Wise, woolly, and absolutely convinced she can fly. Frankly, we are too.
🐓 Egbert, keeper of the chickens – Daniel Rigby
Soft-spoken, slightly flustered, and completely obsessed with his chickens (who, incidentally, don’t listen to him at all).
🕰️ Albert the time-travelling Bert – David Tennant
Often late, always enthusiastic, never in the right decade.
🛠️ Justbert the inventor Bert – Stephen Fry
Elegant, clever, and a bit mysterious. If anyone knows where the lost screw went, it’s Justbert.
🏁 Wheelybert the racing Bert – Charithra Chandran
Fast, fabulous and always ready for a challenge, even if it’s a speed race to the biscuit tin.
🔧 Gerbert the engineer Bert – David Holt
He’s the one under the table fixing things while everyone else is panicking.
🌻 Digbert the gardening Bert – Ben Whishaw
Loves his veg. Talks to his tomatoes. Sings to his sunflowers.
🎂 Bakerbert twins – Tom Holland & Jodie Comer
One whisks, the other decorates. Arguments are frequent. Cake is plentiful. Flour is everywhere.
🦌 Prince the purple reindeer – Brian Blessed
Loud. Majestic. Absolutely convinced he’s royalty. (He might be.)
🐏 Gordon the grumpy ram – Jim Carter
Grumbles, snorts, and says “hmmph” a lot but he has a soft heart.
👨🔧 The Maker – Tom Hardy
Steady, scrap-sculpting genius. Doesn’t say much. Doesn’t need to.
👩💼 Lotty – Kate Winslet
Dreamer, planner, holder-of-the-vision and usually the one keeping Weebert out of trouble. (Well, trying.)
So there you have it, our completely made-up, totally hopeful, wildly joyful dream cast.
Will this ever happen?
Who knows!
But if Brian Blessed happens to read this, we’re very open to a conversation.
And now it’s over to you…
💬 Who would YOU cast in Weebert’s World?
Drop us a message or share your ideas in the comments, we love seeing how others imagine the characters.
Love,
Lotty (& Weebert — who’s currently practising his Oscar speech with a colander on his head.)
