Pixar is back with a fresh and imaginative story in Elio, a heartwarming and comedic misadventure that takes audiences far beyond the stars. The newly released teaser trailer offers a glimpse into the life of Elio, voiced by Yonas Kibreab, a boy with a big imagination and a fascination with the unknown. But when Elio gets transported to the “Communiverse” — a vibrant, alien-filled utopia — he finds himself in an unexpected spotlight: mistaken as Earth’s leader!
The teaser sets the tone for a fun, intergalactic journey, with striking visuals, quirky alien characters, and a touch of heartfelt humor. The voice cast is stacked with talent, including Zoe Saldaña as Elio’s Aunt Olga, Brad Garrett as the larger-than-life Lord Grigon, and Jameela Jamil as the poised Ambassador Questa. Shirley Henderson’s portrayal of the enigmatic OOOOO adds a layer of intrigue, while Remy Edgerly’s Glordon provides a playful counterbalance.
Directed by an all-star team of Madeline Sharafian (Burrow), Domee Shi (Turning Red), and Adrian Molina (Coco), Elio promises the kind of emotional depth and universal storytelling Pixar is known for. The film is produced by Mary Alice Drumm, whose work on Coco highlights her knack for bringing heartfelt narratives to life.
The trailer also teases the central theme: what happens when the roles we dream of suddenly become our reality? Elio’s journey isn’t just about intergalactic diplomacy; it’s about forming connections, embracing identity, and proving that even the most unexpected people can rise to the occasion.
Catch Elio in theaters on June 13, 2025, and prepare for a visually stunning, laughter-filled, and deeply emotional adventure!
