Production
During the production of Geo Movie in late 1999, Geo G. was asked if he could make a feature film based on his upcoming animated television series Cland Ann (known as Cland and Japper at the time). He replied, "Well, we're already working on our next show on FOX which is now in production, but we'll get to that eventually." After ABC took over FOX's rights for both Geo TV and Cland Ann in June 2000, Geo stated that the film was in early development by Glass Ball Productions to be released in 2003.

In August 2001, which was actually before the show was even aired on ABC, Glass Ball announced that the film, titled Cland Ann: The Movie, began production, with the show's cast are signed to reprise their roles. Hand-drawn animation was made by Rough Draft Studios in both Los Angeles, California and Seoul, South Korea. CGI animation for props and certain sets were developed and animated by PowerAnimator.

Wonderful Neon Productions, who co-produced the show, also co-produces the film as well, though it is uncredited.

Release
In March 2001, during the production of the show, it was announced that the film was set to be released on September 26, 2003. However, in February 2002, the film's release date was moved up to October 18, 2002, from its initial September 26, 2003, date, switching places with Geo Movie 2, due to the fact the animators needed more time to work on Geo Movie 2.

Trailers
The film's teaser trailer was released in March 2002, and was attached to films such as Ice Age. The film's first theatrical trailer was released in May 2002 and was attached to films such as Scooby-Doo and The Powerpuff Girls Movie. The second theatrical trailer was released on September 13, 2002 with Geo: The Greatest Movie Ever.

Rating
Cland Ann: The Movie was rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for "violence, mild language and some thematic elements", in which it means it has the show's adult humor in some scenes, like Geo Movie, which was also rated PG. Like Geo Movie, this film is targeted at teenagers and adults, due to the film's humor.

Home media
Cland Ann: The Movie was originally released on DVD and VHS on February 3, 2003. It is a 2-disc collector's edition DVD, which includes 9 minutes of deleted scenes, featurettes, and more.

A "director's cut" edition, which was rated PG-13, was released on DVD and VHS on March 12, 2004, which it cuts out scenes from the film's marketing, including the deleted scenes.

The film was also re-released on Blu-ray on January 23, 2008, along with the first four Geo Movie films and MYCUN: The Movie. All of these releases include a movie ticket to Legend of MYCUN.
