Onward: Trailer Talk

4th June 2019

Onward is in cinemas 6^th March 2020.

When Netflix released their original film ‘Bright’, I remember thinking the premise was unique and cool: it was set in the modern world where mythical creatures co-existed with humans.

However, the execution of the film wasn’t good. The reason I bring this film up is because Pixar’s next original film sounds very similar in terms of its setting.

‘Onward’ stars Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy) and Tom Holland (Spiderman: Homecoming) as two elf brothers who go on a road trip to search for any remaining magic in the modern world.

In short, this is what I wanted ‘Bright’ to be: a humorous, fun adventure set in a modern/fantasy world. While both lead actors have shared a film together (Avengers: Infinity War), I’m looking forward to seeing the pair act alongside each other in a different environment entirely.

From the trailer, Chris Pratt’s voice acting sounds forced, and has not won me over yet. However, that could change when the film is released.

‘Onward’ is in cinemas 6^th March 2020.

Onward is an upcoming American 3D computer-animated fantasy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures. It is directed by Dan Scanlon, produced by Kori Rae, and stars the voices of Tom Holland, Chris Pratt, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Octavia Spencer. The film is scheduled to be released on March 6, 2020.

The film is set in a suburban magical world where humans do not exist, and is instead populated with elves, trolls, mermaids, centaurs, fauns, satyrs, gnomes, sprites, goblins, and others, and where unicorns are raccoons and dragons are pets. Two teenage elf brothers, Ian and Barley, embark on a quest to discover if there is still magic in the world in order to spend one day with their father, who died when they were too young to remember him.
