Disney has released another trailer for Pixar's sci-fi comedy adventure film Elio , which follows a young boy who is abducted by aliens and is mistaken for the leader of Earth. The movie looks like it'll give audiences a fun moving-going experience. It might just end up being another winner for Pixar. The synopsis reads: 'For centuries, people have called out to the universe looking for answers—in Disney and Pixar's all-new movie Elio , the universe calls back! The original feature film introduces Elio, an underdog with an active imagination who finds himself inadvertently beamed up to the Communiverse, an interplanetary organization with representatives from galaxies far and wide. 'Mistakenly identified as Earth's ambassador to the rest of the universe, and completely unprepared for that kind of pressure, Elio must form new bonds with eccentric alien lifeforms, survive a series of formidable trials and somehow discover who he is truly meant to be.' Yonas Kibreab ( Obi-Won Kenobi ) takes on the role of the young boy, and he's joined by America Ferrera as Olga, his mom. She is described as being 'Super-confident, smart and can hold her own in any situation.' The voice cast also includes Jameela Jamil and Brad Garrett . Elio was directed by Adrian Molina (screenwriter and co-director of Coco ) and produced by Mary Alice Drumm (associate producer of Coco ). It will be released in theaters on March 1, 2024.
