Screamboat is a 2025 American horror comedy film co-written, co-produced and directed by Steven LaMorte. It is a reimagining of Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks's 1928 animated short film, Steamboat Willie. The plot follows a group of New Yorkers who are terrorized by a monstrous mouse named Steamboat Willie. It stars David Howard Thornton, Allison Pittel, Amy Schumacher, Jesse Posey, Kailey Hyman, Jesse Kove, and Jarlath Conroy. Though the Walt Disney Company retains exclusive rights to its own Mickey Mouse universe, the Steamboat Willie version of the character entered the public domain on January 1, 2024. One day later, Screamboat was announced. Screamboat was released theatrically in the United States and United Kingdom on April 2, 2025, and later released on DVD, Blu-ray, and streaming in the United States on May 2, 2025. The film received mixed reviews from critics. A sequel titled Screamboat 2: Nothing Stays Dead, is in development.
