Pixar is no stranger to aliens. Toy Story's green, claw-worshipping alien toys are among the animation giant's most iconic creations, while Lightyear featured hostile alien lifeforms aplenty. But Pixar's upcoming film Elio promises the most Pixar aliens yet.
Directed by Madeline Sharafian, Domee Shi, and Adrian Molina, the film centers on a young boy named Elio (voiced by Yonas Kibreab), who wants nothing more than to be abducted by aliens. He gets his wish and is transported to the alien collective known as the Communiverse, where he mistakenly becomes ambassador for the entire human race.
Along the way, he also makes his first friend: an alien named Glordon (voiced by Remy Edgerly). An intergalactic mix between a slug and a lobster, Glordon seems like an absolute sweetheart of an alien. He even offers to let Elio stay in his (very toothy) mouth in order to escape a lava flow! There's just one problem: Glordon's dad is the bloodthirsty Lord Grigon (voiced by Brad Garrett), who, from the looks of the trailer, is on the warpath to take down the Communiverse. Can Elio, Glordon, and the rest of the universe team up to stop him?
