The Wild Robot Clip - Roz Finds a Task

Without an assigned task, our Wild Robot hero must return to the factory. She's not programmed to perform the duties of a 'mother.' But is anyone ever ready to be a mom for the first time? DreamWorks Animation's upcoming animated adventure hits theaters September 27.

This is a film that can't be missed... a beautifully animated gem about a bond like no other. From the brilliant mind of Chris Sanders, the writer/director of animated classics like ‘Lilo & Stitch’ and ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ comes a new adaptation of Peter Brown’s NYT bestseller, ‘The Wild Robot.’

The film follows the epic adventure of a robot - ROZZUM unit 7134, ‘Roz’ for short - that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must learn to adapt to the harsh surroundings, gradually building relationships with the animals on the island and becoming the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling.

‘The Wild Robot’ stars Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o (‘Us,’ ‘The Black Panther’ franchise) as robot Roz; Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Pedro Pascal (‘The Last of Us,’ ‘The Mandalorian’) as fox Fink; Emmy winner Catherine O’Hara (‘Schitt’s Creek,’ ‘Best in Show’) as opossum Pinktail; Oscar nominee Bill Nighy (‘Living,’ ‘Love Actually’) as goose Longneck; Kit Connor (‘Heartstopper,’ ‘Rocketman’) as gosling Brightbill and Oscar nominee Stephanie Hsu (‘Everything Everywhere All at Once,’ this summer’s ‘The Fall Guy’) as Vontra, a robot that will intersect with Roz’s life on the island.

The film is written and directed by three-time Oscar nominee Sanders, who wrote and directed DreamWorks Animation’s ‘How to Train Your Dragon,’ ‘The Croods,’ and Disney’s ‘Lilo & Stitch.’ Jeff Hermann (DreamWorks Animation’s ‘The Boss Baby 2: Family Business;’ co-producer, ‘Kung Fu Panda’ franchise) produces.

The film also features the voice talents of Emmy winning pop-culture icon Mark Hamill (‘Star Wars’ franchise, ‘The Boy and the Heron’), Matt Berry (‘What We Do in the Shadows,’ ‘The SpongeBob Movie’ franchise) and Golden Globe winner and Emmy nominee Ving Rhames (‘Mission: Impossible’ films, ‘Pulp Fiction’).
