=== Prelude ===
In December 2019, Warner Bros. began the first negotiations to renew its previous agreement to distribute and produce the next film properties based on Lego toys, with the intention that Universal Pictures would also provide its own IP's, although Warner retained "creative control , marketing and distribution "of the tapes. In April 2020, the new agreement with The Lego Group and Universal was established for a limited 9-year film contract with Warner Bros. which still owns control over the previous films.
In October 2022, The Lego Group . Universal Pictures and Warner Bros. hosted an event at New York Comic-Con where they announced their new movie lineup alongside Lego System A / S, with Universal-owned characters appearing as cameos and minor plots, exploring opportunities to integrate them into future films, which Warner would continue to finance, distribute, and over which it would have ultimate creative control. Both studios do not have the ability to terminate the deal at any time until its expiration, furthermore, Universal Pictures still received five percent of the first gross dollar from the films and ten percent if one of its intellectual properties is in them. .
