The special stars Bronte Carmichael as the titulary Robin the Robin , a hatchling whose egg falls from her nest , leading to her being raise by a family of mice , and render her a life where she ’s not quite a hoot , not quite a mouse , but a feisty go - getter withal , looking to prove herself in the unusual populace she ’s grown up in .
Carmichael is joined in the chief plaster bandage by Adeel Akhtar as Dad Mouse , the loving founder to four of his own shiner children before take Robin into the family , andacting legend Richard E. Grantas Magpie , a collectible hoarder who takes the young Robin under his fender on her journeying of ego - find . But perhaps the most delightful casting of all isX - Files image Gillian Anderson , who will play Robin Robin ’s villain Cat , a … well , cat , whose voracious appetence to eat all things around her order her at odds with our avian hero . If all the above lovely imaging was n’t enough , here ’s a fresh poster as well , which is mostly an excuse to melt over Robin ’s fake - black eye ears :
