When it comes to aliens in cinema, they’re most known for abducting unsuspecting victims going about their everyday business. But what if said victim actually wanted to be found? Such is the case in Pixar Animation Studios’ upcoming film, Elio, a humorous escapade with a young alien fanatic who eagerly seeks out otherworldly intelligent life. His deepest desires come true when he’s whisked away to the Communiverse, an intergalactic utopia inhabited by intelligent life from distant galaxies. Mistaken for Earth’s leader, Elio embarks on a misadventure filled with unlikely friendships and intergalactic chaos, all while desperately trying to fulfill his greatest dream. Disney and Pixar’s new Elio trailer has been released alongside a poster.
Elio is directed by Madeline Sharafian, known for the Burrow SparkShort, Domee Shi, acclaimed for Bao and Turning Red, and Adrian Molina, co-screenwriter and co-director of Coco. The film is produced by Mary Alice Drumm, associate producer of Coco. Set to release in theaters on June 13, 2025, Elio stars Yonas Kibreab as Elio, Zoe Saldaña as Aunt Olga, Remy Edgerly as Glordon, Brad Garrett as Lord Grigon, Jameela Jamil as Ambassador Questa, and Shirley Henderson as OOOOO.
