Disney has released the first trailer for Pixar’s upcoming sci-fi film Elio, which is going to take audiences on a wild out-of-this-world adventure. The movie follows a young boy who is abducted by aliens and is mistaken for the leader of Earth.
The synopsis reads: “A space fanatic with an active imagination and a huge alien obsession, Elio’s all in for an epic undertaking when he’s beamed up to the Communiverse, an interplanetary organization with representatives from galaxies far and wide.
