The Fall of Bigfoot — Part One is a 2025 American neo-Western action thriller film directed and produced by Guillermo del Toro from a screenplay by David Twohy. It is the sequel to The Return of Bigfoot, the third installment in the Bigfoot film series, and the penultimate film in the series. The film stars an ensemble cast including Anne Hathaway, Laurence Fishburne, Tom Hiddleston, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Will Patton, Michael Caine, Riley Keough, and James Badge Dale. It follows Allison and her crew of hunters as they begin to hike up the tall, snowy mountains in preparation for another battle with Bigfoot, against whom Allison still has a personal grudge for the murder of her husband, David. The film opened in theaters on January 16th, 2025; it received mixed reviews, with praise for its performances (particularly Hathaway and Dale), del Toro's direction, score, emotional weight, themes, writing and action sequences, but criticism for its lack of screen-time for the title character compared to the previous two films and its predictable story. However, critics considered it a worthy sequel to The Return of Bigfoot and thought it was "still better than the first film". The film was a box-office success and grossed $917 million worldwide. Other praises by critics were given to its portrayal of the Pacific Northwest and especially the deeper motivations of Hathaway’s character. The Fall of Bigfoot — Part Two was released two years later, to critical and financial success.
