Days before Toy Story 4 hits theaters worldwide, Disney-Pixar has announced Soul, its new original film scheduled for release on June 19, 2020.
Described as “a journey from the streets of New York City to the cosmic realms to discover the answers to life’s most important questions,” Soul will be directed by Pixar’s chief creative officer Pete Docter (Monsters, Inc., Up, Inside Out) with Dana Murray (Lou) as producer.
Although no other plot details have been disclosed thus far, the film’s tagline points to an existential premise along the lines of the Oscar-winning Inside Out: “Ever wonder where your passion, your dreams and your interests come from? What is it that makes you… YOU?”
