Soul - teaser trailer
Directed by two-time Academy Award®-winner Pete
Docter, co-directed by Kemp Powers and produced by Academy Award®-nominee Dana
Murray, Disney and Pixar’s “Soul” opens in theaters on June 19, 2020.
According to Docter, the idea for the story is 23 years in the making. “It
started with my son—he’s 23 now—but the instant he was born, he already had a
personality,” says Docter. “Where did that come from? I thought your
personality developed through your interaction with the world. And yet, it was
pretty clear that we’re all born with a very unique, specific sense of who we
are.” “Soul” introduces Joe Gardner, a middle-school band
teacher whose true passion is playing jazz. “I think Joe is having that crisis
that all artists have,” says Powers. “He’s increasingly feeling like
his lifelong dream of being a jazz musician is not going to pan out and he’s
asking himself ‘Why am I here? What am I meant to be doing?’ Joe personifies
those questions.”
Pete Doctor directed Monsters Inc, Up and Inside Out; so it's fair to say his Pixar credentials are beyond reproach. Although this is only a teaser trailer, Soul is looking very promising. We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
