The release date of the new animated film "Elio" by Disney and Pixar has been set for August 1st, and new stills were released on March 19th. The stills show the companions that the protagonist, the lonely boy Elio, meets: the lonely alien boy Grodon and his guide Woooo.
The protagonist, Elio, is a lonely boy who loves space. He is searching for his place in the universe and believes that he will one day go to space. One day, his wish comes true and he is mistaken for the "leader of Earth" and transported to a space summit in space where leaders from various planets gather. The story follows Elio as he meets his space friends, forms bonds with them, finds his place in the universe, and grows as a person.
The film will be directed by Madeline Sharafian, who served as story artist on "Coco" (2017), Domee Shi, director of "Me and the Red Panda" (2022), and Adrian Molina, who wrote and co-directed "Coco."
Woooo, who appears in the released scene cut, is a small, round, and cute-eyed guide for the Communiverse. He is an important character who helps Elio, who has become lost. Grodon is a lonely alien boy who meets Elio and gets caught up in his adventure.
