Pixar’s newest film, Elio, is now lighting up the big screen and bringing cosmic fun to Disney Parks on both coasts. This heartwarming sci-fi adventure tells the story of Elio, an imaginative 11-year-old boy who unexpectedly becomes Earth’s ambassador to the Communiverse, a galactic organization made up of eccentric alien civilizations. With the planet’s fate in his hands, Elio must learn what it truly means to belong.
The film features the voice talents of Yonas Kibreab as Elio, Guardians of the Galaxy star Zoe Saldaña as his aunt Olga, plus Jameela Jamil and Brad Garrett in key alien roles. Full of humor, emotion, and out-of-this-world visuals, Elio is about identity, bravery, and making your own place in the universe.
