On March 6, Disney•Pixar’s Onward will invite audiences to follow along on an epic quest that begins in a suburban fantasy world where magic may still exist.
Following the debut of a teaser this spring, Pixar unveiled the official trailer for the film, which follows two teenage elf brothers, Ian and Barley Lightfoot (voiced by Tom Holland and Chris Pratt), as they uncover a mystical wizard’s staff and attempt to bring back their deceased father for just one day. In Onward, the world is inhabited by the characters and creatures of myths and legends, and unicorns are treated as trash pandas, eating garbage like raccoons.
Onward also features the voices of Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep) as Ian and Barley’s mom, Laurel Lightfoot, and Octavia Spencer (Hidden Figures) as the voice of the Manticore.
Pixar Animation Studios’ Onward is directed by Dan Scanlon (Monsters University) and produced by Kori Rae (Up).
