“You need to learn how things work on this island.” Universal + DreamWorks Animation have revealed the second official trailer for The Wild Robot, which was just presented at the 2024 Annecy Film Festival in France. Arriving in theaters in September later in the year. After a shipwreck, an intelligent robot called Roz is stranded on an island. To survive the harsh environment, Roz bonds with the island’s animals and cares for an orphaned baby goose. A powerful story (based on the books) about the discovery of self, a thrilling examination of the bridge between technology and nature and a moving exploration of what it means to be alive and connected to all living things, The Wild Robot is written & directed by three-time Oscar nominee Chris Sanders—of How to Train Your Dragon, The Croods, and Lilo & Stitch. Starring Lupita Nyong’o as Roz; Pedro Pascal as fox Fink; Catherine O’Hara as opossum Pinktail; Bill Nighy as goose Longneck; Kit Connor as gosling Brightbill, and Stephanie Hsu as Vontra, another robot. It also has the voices of Mark Hamill, Matt Berry, & Ving Rhames. Looks absolutely amazing. This new trailer shows a LOT of the story, and it’s more than enough – I’ll be there opening day to watch this on the big screen. Cannot wait.
Here’s the second official trailer (+ poster) for Chris Sanders’ The Wild Robot, direct from YouTube:

From DreamWorks Animation comes a new adaptation of a literary sensation – Peter Brown’s beloved, award-winning, #1 New York Times bestseller, The Wild Robot. The epic sci-fi adventure story 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 is both written and directed by acclaimed animation filmmaker Chris Sanders, director of the movies Lilo & Stitch, How to Train Your Dragon, The Croods, and The Call of the Wild previously, as well as lots of other animation work. Adapted from the beloved book series written by Peter Brown. Produced by Jeff Hermann; executive produced by Dean DeBlois. Made by DreamWorks Animation. Universal will debut Sanders’ The Wild Robot in theaters everywhere starting on September 27th, 2024 later this year. How does that look? Who’s in?
