List of Warner Bros. theatrical animated feature films

This article is about all animated features produced or distributed by Warner Bros.. For a list of features produced by Warner Bros. Animation and its predecessors, see List of Warner Bros. Animation productions. For lists of features produced by other animation studios owned by Warner Bros., see List of Warner Bros. Pictures Animation productions and List of films based on DC Comics publications.

This is a list of theatrical animated feature films produced or released by Warner Bros., a division of Warner Bros. Discovery. Warner Bros. releases films from Warner-owned and non-Warner owned animation studios. Most films listed below were produced by Warner Bros. divisions, but Warner Bros. has also released films produced by other production companies, such as United Productions of America and Don Bluth Ireland Ltd. Additionally, Warner Bros.'s Japanese division has helped co-produce and release anime films in that country, such as Summer Wars and Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The Movie.

Note: Although Warner Bros. handled overseas theatrical distribution of Disney films from 1988 to 1992 (e.g. Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Oliver & Company, Beauty and the Beast), Disney titles are not included in this list.
