There’s a brand new gorgeous extended trailer for Kubo and the Two Strings, the upcoming stop-motion animated movie directed by Travis Knight:
KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS
Get ready for this Summer’s most epic adventure!
To defeat his enemies he must discover his own story!
“An epic action-adventure set in a fantastical Japan from acclaimed animation studio LAIKA.
Kubo lives a quiet, normal life in a small shoreside village until a spirit from the past turns his life upside down by re-igniting an age-old vendetta. This causes all sorts of havoc as gods and monsters chase Kubo who, in order to survive, must locate a magical suit of armor once worn by his late father, a legendary Samurai warrior.”
It’s hard to believe this new movie from Laika was created using stop motion: the animation is so fluid and stunning that you’d think they did it using CG animation. Marvelous!
The film opens in theaters on August 19, 2016.
