Writer and director Bong Joon-ho, known for his work on Paradise, has landed an all-star ensemble for his debut animated feature film, which tells the story of a piglet squid. As revealed at Cannes Film Festival, Searching's Alex Jayne Go has been cast alongside Clarissa star Edebiri, Maestro's Cooper, WWE and Marvel legend Bautista, and Stranger Things actor Wolfhard.
The voice cast is rounded off by A Minecraft Movie star Rachel House, and Encounters At The End of the World veteran Werner Herzog. The story follows Ally, who is a curious piglet squid living in the depths of the South Pacific Ocean.
However, her peaceful world takes a dangerous turn when a mysterious aircraft sinks into the ocean, taking Ally on a journey all the way to the surface. The film has been inspired by real life marine creatures and explores the ideas of friendship and courage against a backdrop of underwater worlds. The team behind the movie include creative talents from 12 countries, including South Korea, with a number of high profile contributors.
Kim Jae-hyung is on board as animation supervisor, while the Shrek franchise's David Lipman is supervising producer, while Klaus production designer Marcin Jakubowski has also signed on. Meanwhile, studio DNEG — known for its work on Dune and Inception — will contribute expertise in high-end 3D animation. Talking about the project last year, Bong Joon-ho told Deadline: "I'm in the middle of a crazy animation production. It's very wild and tough job.
Even this morning I worked in my hotel room. It's very hard work.
" Asked for more details, he teased: "It's a very unique, funny relationship between the human race and little creatures that live in the deep sea. "
