Onwardwas announced as un untitled fantasy comedy in the summer of 2017, during the height of that year’s D23 Expo. Dan Scanlon is directing the upcoming latest entry in the Pixar cannon, working alongside producer Kori Rae. The movie was itself inspired by thedeath of Dead Scanlon’s own dadwhen the filmmaker and his brother were much younger. And the characters played byChris Pratt and Tom Hollandis based on that relationship.
Dan Scanlon set out to write the script after having listened to an old audio clip that he’d found from his father. In the movie, the two elf brothers set out to bring their father back, but are only able to manifest the bottom half of the man, with just his legs, waist and feet. It wasn’t until a year ago thatDisneyand Pixar finally decided on the titleOnward.
Onwardisn’t the only new Pixar movie coming in 2020. Disney has already started to promote their next endeavor, which is the fantasy adventure comedySoul. This next animated effort is a little more geared towards adults, with the story of Joe Gardner, a middle school music teacher who has long dreamed of performing jazz music onstage. He finally gets a chance after impressing other jazz musicians during an opening act at the Half Note Club. However, an accident causes Gardner’s soul to be separated from his body and transported to the “You Seminar”, a center in which souls develop and gain passions before being transported to a newborn child. Gardner must work with souls in training, such as 22, a soul with a dim view on life after being trapped for years at the You Seminar, in order to return to Earth before it’s too late.
