Academy Awards Month Inspires Movie-Themed LEGO Sets for Film Fans
Academy Awards Month LEGO sets bring Oscar-recognized film worlds to life with immersive builds inspired by cinema’s most iconic moments.
This year, LEGO® is tapping into that nostalgia with a curated lineup of movie-inspired sets designed to let fans rebuild some of cinema’s most iconic worlds — one brick at a time.
Available at LEGO.ca, LEGO retail stores and select retailers across Canada, the collection spans Oscar-recognized and culturally influential films, transforming screen moments into immersive builds for both adult collectors and younger fans.
Middle-earth Comes to Life

The 18+ display set features a fully detailed hobbit hole interior, interactive elements including a vanishing Bilbo mechanism, Gandalf’s cart and a brick-built firework dragon — capturing the charm and scale that made The Lord of the Rings trilogy an Academy Award powerhouse.
Suspense on the Water
Thriller enthusiasts can revisit one of cinema’s most suspenseful classics with LEGO Ideas Jaws (1,497 pieces, $199.99 CAD). The detailed Orca boat and shark attack scene are built atop a brick-constructed seawater base, complete with minifigures of Chief Brody, Matt Hooper and Sam Quint. The shark can be displayed emerging dramatically from the water or showcased separately.

The LEGO Star Wars™ Death Star™ Ultimate Collector Series (9,023 pieces, $1,299.99 CAD) delivers a museum-worthy recreation of the Empire’s iconic battle station. Designed for adult builders, the model features interior scenes including the trash compactor and Emperor Palpatine’s throne room, alongside 38 characters and figures.

Whether displayed during Oscars viewing parties or built as part of a movie marathon tradition, the sets reflect how storytelling continues to live beyond the screen.
