It is directed by Kenneth Branagh, from a screenplay co-written by Conor McPherson and Hamish McColl.

Artemis Fowl was originally intended to be a theatrical release, but was cancelled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Instead, it was released digitally worldwide on Disney+ on June 12, 2020. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, with Rotten Tomatoes saying that it would "anger fans of the source material and leave newcomers befuddled".
