When aspiring musician Miguel (voice of Anthony Gonzalez) ends up in the Land of the Dead in Disney-Pixar’s Coco his family takes him to the Department of Family Reunions where a busy clerk (voice of Gabriel Iglesias) informs him that he’s cursed. To return to the Land of the Living, Miguel will need a magical marigold petal and the blessing of a family member – but, according to the clerk, the family member can include any condition she likes – even forbidding music forever. Directed by Lee Unkrich, co-directed by Adrian Molina (story artist Monsters University) and produced by Darla K. Anderson, Coco opens in U.S. theaters on Nov. 22, 2017.
