A Yeti is convinced that the elusive creatures known as “humans” really do exist. That’s the log line for Smallfoot, a forthcoming animated comedy from our friends at the Warner Animation Group. Co-directed by Karey Kirkpatrick (Over The Hedge, Chicken Run) and Jason Reisig (Trolls), written by Kirkpatrick based on a story by Sergio Pablos – and with a voice cast including by Channing Tatum, James Corden, Zendaya, Common, LeBron James, Gina Rodriguez and Danny DeVito – it is scheduled to be released next Fall – on September 14th, 2018. Here’s our first look:

Synopsis:

An animated adventure for all ages, with original music and an all-star cast, “Smallfoot” turns the Bigfoot legend upside down when a bright young Yeti (voiced by Channing Tatum) finds something he thought didn’t exist — a human.

News of this “smallfoot” brings him fame and a chance with the girl of his dreams. It also throws the simple Yeti community into an uproar over what else might be out there in the big world beyond their snowy village, in a rollicking story about friendship, courage and the joy of discovery.
