Watch the fishy first trail­er for Find­ing Dory

10 Nov 2015

Words by Adam Woodward

Twelve years on from Find­ing Nemo, Dis­ney-Pixar have a new tale of ocean­ic self-discovery.

Is there a mar­ket for Find­ing Dory? A dozen years is a long time to wait for an ani­mat­ed movie sequel. The kids that fell in love with Find­ing Nemo are all grown up. How­ev­er, there’s always new kids and always nos­tal­gic adults.

Find­ing Dory focus­es on amne­si­ac blue tang, Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), attempt­ing to find her lost fam­i­ly, backed up by a stel­lar voice cast, from the old school (Albert Brooks, Alexan­der Gould) plus new hooks (Diane Keaton, Eugene Levy and The Wire alum­nus, Dominic West and Idris Elba). Andrew Stan­ton is direct­ing, as he did first time round, and the UK release date is slat­ed for 29 July 2016.

Any­one find­ing it a lit­tle hard to drum up enthu­si­asm for such a delayed pro­duc­tion, might want to ref­er­ence this enthu­si­as­tic com­ment by DeGeneres via the Hol­ly­wood Reporter:

“I have wait­ed for this day for a long, long, long, long, long, long time. I’m not mad it took this long. I know the peo­ple at Pixar were busy cre­at­ing Toy Sto­ry 16. But the time they took was worth it. The script is fan­tas­tic. And it has every­thing I loved about the first one: It’s got a lot of heart, it’s real­ly fun­ny, and the best part is – it’s got a lot more Dory.”

Watch the new trail­er to see if this fish is a catch or whether the ship has tru­ly sailed.
