​Turning lives around.

Our story

The story is set in a near-future where "B-bots"—digitally connected, pill-shaped robot companions—have become the ultimate accessory for every child. These bots are designed to be the "Best Friend Out of the Box," using algorithms to find playmates and curate a child's social life.

: The film features Jack Dylan Grazer as Barney and Zach Galifianakis as the voice of Ron. The supporting cast includes Olivia Colman, Ed Helms, and Justice Smith.

: The film contrasts the "algorithmic friendship" of the B-bots—which focuses on shared likes and digital metrics—with the messy, challenging, and authentic bond between Barney and Ron.

Ron’s Gone Wrong is more than a simple "boy and his robot" story; it is a timely reflection on the digital age. It suggests that while technology can connect us, true friendship requires the "glitches"—the disagreements, the effort, and the offline moments—that an algorithm cannot provide.

: Produced by the UK-based Locksmith Animation, the film features a distinct, vibrant visual style that emphasizes the contrast between the slick, sterile tech world and Barney’s more grounded, slightly cluttered home life. Conclusion
