Selick began developing his stop-motion animation feature with Key and Peele set to star in November 2015. The distributor rights were picked up by Netflix in March 2018. Other voice cast were confirmed in March 2022. Production was done remotely during the [[Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cinema|COVID-19 pandemic]], with filming taking place in [[Portland, Oregon]].
It premiered at the [[2022 Toronto International Film Festival|47th Toronto International Film Festival]] on September 11, 2022, was released in [[Limited theatrical release|select cinemas]] on October 21, 2022, and made its streaming release in [[Netflix]]<ref name="ComingSoon">{{Cite web |title=Netflix 2022 Movie Release Dates Set for Rest of Year |website=ComingSoon.net |first=Spencer |last=Legacy |url=https://www.comingsoon.net/movies/news/1237000-netflix-2022-slate |date=2022-08-30 |access-date=2022-08-31 |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Coraline's director made a new movie — but Jordan Peele worried Get Out would kill it |website=[[Polygon (website)|Polygon]] |first=Tasha |last=Robinson |url=https://www.polygon.com/23327310/wendell-and-wild-cast-jordan-peele-henry-selick |date=2022-08-30 |access-date=2022-08-31 |language=en-US}}</ref> on October 28, 2022. It received generally positive reviews from critics who welcomed Selick's return and praised its stop-motion animation and characters, but criticized its screenplay. The film is dedicated to Mark Musumeci, an electricity consultant who worked on almost all of Selick's previous stop-motion features since ''[[The Nightmare Before Christmas]]'', who died during production.
