## Production 
According to *We Bare Bears* series creator Daniel Chong, he was approached by the Cartoon Network staff with an idea for a feature film based on the series in 2018. Despite having no previous experience in film, Chong accepted the proposal. He drew from his feature animation practice and reasoned that the characters he created have an emotional depth in them and capabilities. he knew that could be sustained for a long period of time. The continuing production of the series gave Chong and his team to prepare the film and to finish the episodes at the same time, which took over several months. The film's story was written by Mikey Heller and Kris Mukai, the main writers of the series. While writing it, they were inspired by the 2018 California wildfires and the Trump administration family separation policy that were occurring at the time, which led to members of a family being separated from onew aother as a central theme to a forest fire being written in the story's climax. Chong remarked that sensitive topics such as those would appear not to be ideal in the main children's television series. He also wanted the main themes within the series to be displayed in the film, such as diversity and the reason for anthropomorphic characters.

Chong remarked that the original treatment of the film was centered on the three Bears. However, to balance the heavy themes, the film's core was shifted to be cenered on Grizz. The original meeting sequence was first written with the three bears reminiscing it, it but was rewritten to be focused on Grizz, who Chong felt, as the eldest of the brothers, was faced with the heaviest burdens and the one most concerned with everyone's well-being. Chong also remarked that he was initially opposed to the addition of the other captive bears, as it could risk the main characters as uninteresting. The film was finalized as the Bears' final adventure and a conclusion to the original *We Bare Bears* series, but  Chong had expressed intentions for it to continue to spin-offs and other ways. That was before he announced that would leave Cartoon Network to work on another project. The animation on the film was produced by Rough Draft Studios and Saerom Animation, which had previously animated the television series.
