Zaniness has no limits.

The Warner Brothers (and the Warner Sister) go on a quest to find a fallen wishing star to help Dot with her illness.

Interesting facts

  • Based on: Animaniacs

Wakko's Wish is a 1999 American animated musical comedy-adventure fantasy direct-to-video film based on the 1993–1998 animated series Animaniacs, and serves as the series finale related to the show before the 2020 revival of the series. It relocates all of the Animaniacs characters to a quasi-19th century fairy tale world and portrays their race to find the wishing star that will grant them a wish.

Production and release

Although Wakko's Wish had been rated highly amongst children and adults in test screenings, Warner Bros. decided to release it direct-to-video rather than spending money on marketing a wide theatrical release. Wakko's Wish was originally slated for its VHS release in November 1998, but was pushed forward to December 21, 1999, and re-released on January 25, 2000, as part of the Warner Bros. Century 2000 Collection.
