Pixar’s Next Movie "Elio" Gets First Look

Disney and Pixar have released the first look at the upcoming animated science fiction movie “Elio”.

“Elio” follows an underdog character of the same name who suddenly finds himself transported into the Communiverse, a world encompassed by out-of-this-world, extraterrestrial characters. Upon arrival, Elio is mistakenly identified as Earth’s ambassador, a role that he’s not quite ready to take on.

The movie’s official logline 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! 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,”.

America Ferrera stars as Elio’s mom, Olga, Yonas Kibreab as Elio, Jameela Jamil as Ambassador Questa, and Brad Garrett as Ambassador Grigon. 

Adrian Molina (screenwriter and co-director of “Coco”) serves as a director while Mary Alice Drumm (associate producer of “Coco”) is a producer.

“Elio” hails as Pixar’s 28th movie, and the trailer releases on the heels of the studio's latest movie “Elemental”, which is set to debut this Friday.
