DreamWorks Animation is bringing Peter Brown’s award-winning bestseller ‘The Wild Robot’ to the big screen and the trailer for the film has just been released.
The epic adventure follows the journey of a robot – ROZZUM unit 7134, “Roz” for short – that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling.
‘The Wild Robot’ features the voices of Lupita Nyong’o (‘Us’) as robot Roz; Pedro Pascal (‘The Last of Us‘) as fox Fink; Catherine O’Hara (‘Schitt’s Creek’) as opossum Pinktail; Bill Nighy (‘Living’) as goose Longneck; Kit Connor (‘Heartstopper’) as gosling Brightbill and Stephanie Hsu (‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’) as Vontra, a robot that will intersect with Roz’s life on the island.
The voice cast also includes Mark Hamill (‘Star Wars’), Matt Berry (‘What We Do in the Shadows’) and Ving Rhames (‘Mission: Impossible’ franchise).
‘The Wild Robot’ is written and directed by Chris Sanders (‘How to Train Your Dragon’) and is produced by Jeff Hermann (‘The Boss Baby 2: Family Business’).
