Waiting for a New Wind

Waiting for a New Wind is an American computer-animated disaster drama film produced by Supreme Entertainment, written and directed by Adrian Hancock, co-written by Michael Arndt and Stuart Blumberg, and stars the voices of Jacob Bertrand, Finn Wolfhard, Michelle Monaghan, and film critic Chris Stuckmann (in his feature film debut). In the film, 17-year old web personality Chris Speizer makes a departure from his comedy videos to cover a more honest story; it's about his family struggling to survive the aftermath of a derecho that devastates much of the mid-Atlantic region during their week at his Aunt Griswood's house.

The film was released video-on-demand on September 18, 2020 by Paramount Pictures.

Production
In April 2017, with Doodle Toons and Jesse and Jonas Go West! still in production, Adrian Hancock announced that he was working on a new project that would use first-person cinematography to capture a teen's inner struggle and withdrawal during a widespread power outage caused by a severe storm. In June 2019, Jacob Bertrand and Finn Wolfhard were cast into the film.

Release
Paramount Pictures initially planned to release the film in theaters on October 23, 2020, but due to the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic, the film was instead considered for a video-on-demand release on September 18, its former theatrical release date currently taken by Sony's Connected.
