As is de rigueur during Disney CinemaCon presentations, the studio showed off 20 minutes from their latest Pixar movie, Elemental.
The Peter Sohn-directed title is set in Element City, where fire, water, land and air residents live together. It follows Ember (Leah Lewis), a tough, quick-witted and fiery young woman, whose friendship with a fun, sappy, go-with-the-flow guy named Wade (Mamoudou Athie) challenges her beliefs about the world they live in .
The clip sees immigrant fire-couple Burnie and Cinder’s tough welcome in Elemental City, where they make a life with baby Ember—trying to connect, and avoid water. In addition, fire, earth, water and air creatures arrive at a sort of Ellis Island entryway to Element City where notably the fire duo have a hard time making themselves understood and see their passport stamped with the names Bernie and Cinder
During the pandemic, Pixar movies, Soul and Turning Red, where forced to go on Disney+ as theaters slowly made their way back. Lightyear, the spinoff of Toy Story, went full on theatrical last June earning $226.4M WW.
The Pixar feature will open over Father’s Day weekend, June 16. Elemental is also the closing night film for the Cannes Film Festival.
