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, Asterix and Obelix vs. Caesar (1999) and Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatra (2002). He took over from Roger Carel who had voiced the character since Asterix the Gaul (1967).
    • Goofs
      One of the druid candidates uses a magnetic potion to lift his sickle off a table. The sickles used by the druids in the movie are described as made of gold, a non-magnetic metal.
    • 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.

    maybe, nice

    The good bad guy is the lead virtue. The irony, absurd and injust, against Christianity, the lead sin. A nice animation in which the lead characters are secondary ones, predictible for obvious noble cause and nice . And that is all.
