There’s a new trailer for Coco, the upcoming CG fantasy animated movie directed by Lee Unkrich and Adrian Molina for Disney Pixar:
Coco – Find your voice!
We’re all a part of those who came before.
“Despite his family’s baffling generations-old ban on music, Miguel (voice of newcomer Anthony Gonzalez) dreams of becoming an accomplished musician like his idol, Ernesto de la Cruz (voice of Benjamin Bratt). Desperate to prove his talent, Miguel finds himself in the stunning and colorful Land of the Dead following a mysterious chain of events. Along the way, he meets charming trickster Hector (voice of Gael Garcia Bernal), and together, they set off on an extraordinary journey to unlock the real story behind Miguel’s family history.”
The song in the background, “Bitter Sweet Symphony” by the verve, kind of sounds out of place for a movie so rooted in Day of the Dead lore… Maybe a Mexican or Latino song would have been more appropriate?
Anyway, the film will open in theaters on November 22, 2017.
And here’s the official music video of the song:
