Finding Dory is scheduled to premiere on Jun. 17, and loyal fans are already buzzing about its potential. As a result, Disney and Pixar released a new trailer for the long-awaited sequel to Finding Nemo on Tuesday.
The latest trailer, which premiered on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, allows those anticipating the movie to meet some of the new characters introduced.
The film continues the story of Finding Nemo only six months after the events of the original. Those who saw the movie at a young age may be taking their children to see the sequel, as it has taken the studios 13 years to release the follow-up.
Along with most of the original characters (including Dory, Nemo, Marlin, Crush, and Squirt), newcomers include sea lions, an octopus, a whale shark, and the unique sunfish. Some feathered friends and good humans also play a role in the movie.
The voice cast primarily consists of Albert Brooks, Ellen DeGeneres, Diane Keaton, Eugene Levy, Ty Burrell, and many others. Andrew Stanton, who served as the original film’s director, will also make a return as a writer this time around.
Finding Dory does not only explore some real-life issues, it allows children and adults to learn about the wonders of the sea in a fun, educational way. The original film was noted for teaching some viewers about the vastness the sea has to offer, along with its diverse range of life forms.
The 2003 original has made almost $1 billion in revenue worldwide.
