Pinocchio in Outer Space was a Belgian-American animated film which sets Carlo Collodi's Pinocchio character on a rocketship adventure. The film was produced by Ray Goossens at Belvision Studios, with American involvement from Norm Prescott (Filmation) and Fred Ladd.
The Jiminy Cricket character was not present in this production. Instead, Pinocchio's sidekick was Nurtle, an alien turtle. Together they do battle against Astro, a marauding intergalactic whale.
The French version was titled Pinocchio dans l'espace and the Dutch version was known as Pinocchio in der ruimte.
The film was released in North America by Universal Pictures. It was Universal's second animated film (the first was The Snow Queen) and its last one until 1986's An American Tail.
