In its original incarnation, Disney•Pixar’s animated feature The Good Dinosaur was supposed to hit theaters this past May. That all changed last year when the formerly-attached co-helmer Bob Peterson (co-director on Up) was removed from the project. Shortly thereafter, the release date was shifted to November 25, 2015 and word on the status of the film has been relatively quiet every since.
That changes today with the release of the below video. Posted to Disney•Pixar’s official feed, it shows Peter Sohn, now the sole director on The Good Dinosaur, drawing an image of the film’s lead, Arlo the apatosaurus. Check it out in the player below!
The Good Dinosaur is set to feature the voice talents of Lucas Neff, John Lithgow, Frances McDormand, Bill Hader and Neil Patrick Harris. The storyline asks, “What would have happened if the cataclysmic asteroid that forever changed life on Earth actually missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct?”
Our director Peter Sohn can't wait for you to meet Arlo! #TheGoodDinosaur releases in theaters November 2015.https://t.co/i4J5X6tfhi
