Four Siblings Get Rid of Their Selfish Parents and Embark on an Adventure in Trailer for Netflix's THE WILLOUGHBYS
Netflix has released the trailer for their upcoming animated adventure film The Willoughbys, which is an adaptation of the book written by Newberry Award-winning author Lois Lowry. The movie looks pretty good, and it kind of has a Wes Anderson vibe to it.
In The Willoughbys, “convinced they’d be better off raising themselves, the Willoughby children hatch a sneaky plan to send their selfish parents on vacation. The four siblings then embark on their own high-flying adventure to learn how to adapt their old-fashioned values to the contemporary world as they try to find the true meaning of family.”
The film comes from director Kris Pearn (Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2), and it stars the voice talent Alessia Cara as Jane, Will Forte (Scoob!) as Tim, Vincent Tong (Sausage Party) as the Barnabys, Ricky Gervais (The Little Prince) as Cat, Maya Rudolph (Big Hero 6, Connected) as Nanny, Terry Crews (Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2) as Comander Melanoff, Martin Short (Frankenweenie) as Father, and Jane Krakowski (Open Season) as Mother.
The film, which is being created by BRON Animation, will be available for streaming on April 22nd.
