Walt Disney Animation Studios has revealed a brand new clip of its upcoming fantasy animated film, Strange World.
Strange World introduces a legendary family of explorers, the Clades, as they attempt to navigate an uncharted, treacherous land alongside a motley crew and a slew of ravenous creatures. The voice cast includes Jake Gyllenhaal as Searcher Clade, a family man who finds himself out of his element on an unpredictable mission; Dennis Quaid as Searcher’s larger-than-life explorer father, Jaeger; Jaboukie Young-White as Searcher’s 16-year-old son, Ethan, who longs for adventure; Gabrielle Union as Meridian Clade, an accomplished pilot and Searcher’s partner in all things; and Lucy Liu as Callisto Mal, Avalonia’s fearless leader who spearheads the exploration into the strange world. Strange World is directed by Don Hall (Big Hero 6) and co-director/writer Qui Nguyen, who previously collaborated on last year’s Raya and the Last Dragon and produced by Roy Conli (Tangled).
The synopsis of the movie reads:
“The film journeys deep into a world where fantastical creatures await the legendary Clades, a family of explorers as they attempt to navigate an uncharted, treacherous land alongside a motley crew that includes a mischievous blob, a three-legged dog and a slew of ravenous creatures.”
The newly released clip features the Clade family’s three-legged, perpetually happy dog, Legend, who would do anything for his humans, and a blue blobby creature they call Splat. Legend is the Clade family’s only hope as they find themselves stuck in a small room with no way out.
Disney Animation has a rich tradition of bringing favorite films to the big screen in time for Thanksgiving — from 2016’s Moana and 2019’s Frozen 2 to last year’s Oscar winner Encanto.
Tickets are now on sale for Strange World. The film releases in theaters on November 23.
Disney Animation Studios has released several stills from the movie, which you can see below.
