List of Universal Pictures theatrical animated feature films


 * This article is about all animated features produced by or released through Universal Pictures and its predecessors. For a list of features produced by Universal Animation and its predecessors, see List of Universal Animation films. For lists of features produced by other animation studios owned by NBCUniversal, see List of Illumination films and List of DreamWorks Animation productions.

This list of theatrical animated feature films consists of animated films released by Universal Pictures, the film division of Comcast through the Universal Filmed Entertainment Group division of its wholly-owned subsidiary NBCUniversal.

Universal Pictures releases films from Universal-owned and non-Universal owned animation studios. Most films listed below are from Illumination Entertainment which began as the feature animation department of Universal, producing its first feature-length animated film Despicable Me in 2010. Beginning with Willow in 2018, Universal also released animated films by DreamWorks Animation, which was acquired by NBCUniversal in 2016.

Other studio units have also released films theatrically, primarily Universal Animation Studios which produced a few theatrical animated films before focusing on animating television shows and direct-to-video films, and the studio's distribution unit, which acquires film rights from outside animation studios to release films under the Universal Pictures or Focus Features film labels. For example, Laika's stop-motion animated features were released by Universal through its Focus Features label. Other studios globally have released films through Universal Pictures which maintains distribution rights in certain territories.
