My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks is a 2014 Canadian–American animated fantasy musical film based on Hasbro's Equestria Girls toy line and media franchise, which is a spin-off of the 2010 relaunch of My Little Pony. Written by Meghan McCarthy and directed by Jayson Thiessen, the film was produced by DHX Media's 2D animation studio in Vancouver, Canada for Hasbro Studios in the United States, as a sequel to 2013's My Little Pony: Equestria Girls. The film premiered in select theaters across the United States and Canada on September 27, 2014, which was followed by broadcast on Discovery Family, a joint venture between Discovery Communications and Hasbro, on October 17, 2014, and then a home media release on October 28, 2014.
Like the first film, Rainbow Rocks re-envisions the main characters of parent franchise, normally ponies, as teenage human characters in a high school setting. Set between the television series' fourth and fifth seasons, the film's plot involves Twilight Sparkle returning to Canterlot High School to compete in a Battle of the Bands alongside the counterparts of her friends – including the previous film's vilain, Sunset Shimmer, reformed from her previous state – to save the school from a trio of sirens from Equestria.
