Astérix: Le secret de la potion magique (2018)

Asterix and Obelix embark on a quest across Gaul looking for a young druid worthy of learning the secret of the magic potion - a formula which has long helped to keep the Gaulish village safe against Julius Caesar and his invading army. However, once Asterix and Obelix begin their quest, all hell breaks loose at home as the Romans start attacking the village and an evil wizard named Sulfurix does everything he can to steal the potion's secret recipe.

Trivia
Christian Clavier, who provides the voice for Asterix in this movie, portrayed him in the first two Asterix live-action-movies, Astérix & Obélix contre César (1999) and Astérix & Obélix: Mission Cléopâtre (2002). He took over from Roger Carel who had voiced the character since Astérix le Gaulois (1967).

Quotes
Getafix: We shall return home when I've seen the last of the druids.
Asterix: [Snaps] Oh, I can't believe this! We've been trudging all over Gaul with our stupid little crib notes for weeks! Not one of these guys is good enough!
Vitalstatistix: Asterix, don't get upset.
Asterix: I am not upset! Just like you, I can stumble and fall.
[Pretends to fall]
Asterix: Oop! Ow! See that? I almost fell down. That's it, I'm done. I need a replacement. There. Meet my successor. The new first warrior of our village! Here's your dagger. And your helmet too and your potion.
Geriatrix: Hmm? - What was that? But by Teutates...
Asterix: You have a good time now. I'll be doing something else! 'Cause I'm good and fed up with the indomitables who can't see beyond their own moustaches! Obelix, are you coming?
Obelix: No Mister Asterix I'm very much not coming! I'm not following a little man who chooses an old fogey to replace him over his so-called bestest buddy! Fare ye well, Mister Asterix!
[Asterix is shocked over Obelix defying him and leaves]
Vitalstatistix: Asterix, Asterix, don't be foolish! Come on! Please, Getafix, do something!
Getafix: Asterix is free to go. My quest is not over. And if you choose not to follow me, I will understand. And I will climb up the mountain without you.

Back to the roots

As a guy who grew up on Asterix comics, and I'm still buying new editions for my kid, I can say that quality of episodes declined with couple of last Uderso's episodes. New team has made last 3 novels, and they had their hits and misses, but it was good for the future of Asterix that new ideas came in. It was the same with this movie. Completely new story, romans are not the main oponents, and the story is more about druid Panoramix (Getafix), than Asterix and Obelix. It was a risk, but in my opinion it payed off. The whole story was fun, with beautiful animation, and lots of stuff that even grown-ups can laugh to. I felt as happy as when I was as a kid watching my first Asterix animated movie. We also got the origin story of one of the most loved characters - druid Panoramix. Very good addition to Asterix collection. A must watch for every true fan - young or old.
