Starting Monday, September 14, Jollibee will give fans across North America an early taste of the adventure ahead of the theatrical release. Designed to bring the film’s spirit of friendship from the screen to the table, the limited-time collaboration features themed meal bundles with collectible bracelet charms, retro streetwear apparel, immersive store takeovers in select markets, and a consumer sweepstakes featuring a grand-prize trip to the Philippines. The campaign will run at all Jollibee locations nationwide through October 31, 2026, or while supplies last.

This exciting pop-culture collaboration arrives alongside other major food and theme park announcements across the entertainment landscape, such as Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken hitting Panda Express, the epic reveal of Harry Potter landing at Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi, major theme park updates like ArieForce One and Six Flags’ big announcement, and seasonal treats like Cold Stone’s cozy fall ice cream flavors.

For generations, Jollibee has brought people together over signature menu items like its mouth-watering Chickenjoy fried chicken, crispy Chicken Sandwiches, and Peach Mango Pie. Now, the brand is uniting its cultural heritage with DreamWorks Animation.

“Jollibee and DreamWorks’ Forgotten Island both center on the pure joy of bringing people together and celebrating meaningful connections,” said Luis Velasco, Senior Vice President and Marketing Head at Jollibee North America. “This partnership is a wonderful reflection of Jollibee’s heritage and our commitment to creating memorable, happy moments around great food. We can’t wait for families, moviegoers, and fried chicken lovers across North America to experience the magic of Forgotten Island with us.”

Filipino culture and talent are strongly represented throughout Forgotten Island, including voice work and contributions from Grammy and Academy Award winner H.E.R., actress Liza Soberano, Tony Award winner Lea Salonga, comedy superstar Jo Koy, and co-writer/co-director Januel Mercado.
