DETAILS

ABOUT THE FILM

For centuries, people have called out to the universe looking for answers—and in Disney and Pixar’s all-new feature film Elio, the universe calls back! This cosmic misadventure introduces Elio, a space fanatic with an active imagination and a huge alien obsession. So when he’s beamed up to the Communiverse—an interplanetary organization with representatives from galaxies far and wide—Elio’s all in for the epic undertaking. Mistakenly identified as Earth’s leader, Elio must form new bonds with eccentric alien lifeforms, navigate a crisis of intergalactic proportions, and somehow discover who and where he is truly meant to be. Directed by Madeline Sharafian (Burrow Sparkshort), Domee Shi (Bao short, Turning Red) and Adrian Molina (co-screenwriter/co-director of Coco), and produced by Mary Alice Drumm (associate producer of Coco), the film features the voices of Yonas Kibreab as Elio, Zoe Saldaña as Aunt Olga, Remy Edgerly as Glordon, Brad Garrett as Lord Grigon, Jameela Jamil as Ambassador Questa, and Shirley Henderson as OOOOO. Elio debuts in theaters June 20, 2025. The film is rated PG.
