Disney Offers First Look and Details for Its New Animated Film STRANGE WORLD
Disney has shared a first look at its upcoming animated feature film project Strange World. That first look comes in the form of a piece of concept art, and we also have some new story details to share with you!
This is an original action-adventure story which “journeys deep into an uncharted and treacherous land where fantastical creatures await the legendary Clades, a family of explorers whose differences threaten to topple their latest—and by far— most crucial mission.”
The film comes from director Don Hall (Big Hero 6, Raya and the Last Dragon), and he explains that the film is ”a nod to pulp magazines—popular fiction from the first half of the 20th century that was printed on inexpensive wood pulp paper.” He explained:
“I loved reading the old issues of pulps growing up. They were big adventures in which a group of explorers might discover a hidden world or ancient creatures. They’ve been a huge inspiration for Strange World.”
That sounds like it could be an awesome movie, the kind of movie that I’d enjoy watching. I enjoyed reading pulp magazines as well when I was growing up! This could be great!
The film is also being co-directed and written by Qui Nguyen (co-writer Raya and the Last Dragon) and produced by Roy Conli (Big Hero 6, Tangled).
Strange World will be released in theater on November 23rd, 2022.
