Ahead of their “Minions and Monsters” launching in cinemas tomorrow, Universal Pictures and Illumination have unveiled the teaser trailer for their next feature “Not Alone” opening in April next year.
Four-time Oscar winner Timothee Chalamet makes his animation debut on the project as the voice of an introverted rocket mechanic named Joe who lives a quiet life alone. Gomez will play Fran, a brilliant astro-botanist developing the world’s first plant-fueled rocket.
The pair are brought together to prepare for the inaugural launch of this rocket, there are immediate sparks, but neither is particularly adept at romance.
Life becomes more complicated when three aliens – tiny, unruly and adorable – take refuge in Joe’s home. The trio are Dunk, Welly and Shirm and are on the interplanetary run from a zealous-yet-inept officer of the law named Zandro.
The aliens determine that Fran’s rocket could provide their means of getting back home to safety. Comedians Rob Brydon (“The Trip”), Diane Morgan (“Cunk On”) and Jamie Demetriou (“The Roses”) will voice the three aliens while “Ted Lasso” alum Brett Goldstein will play Officer Zandro.
The great Allison Janney and recent “Spider-Noir” breakout Lamorne Morris also star. Eric Guillon, Claire Dodgson and Jonathan Del Val co-direct the project.
“Not Alone” will open in cinemas on April 16th 2027.
