Chris Sanders, the director, has a great portfolio, such as Lilo & Stitch, The Croods, and How to Train Your Dragon. Also, the adaptation is produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Universal Pictures. The film will stream on both Peacock and Netflix.
In addition, Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o, Emmy winner Kit Connor, and SAG winner Pedro Pascal are some of the big names who constitute the cast for the film.
In the first trailer, we see some beautiful animation with a rendition of “What a Wonderful World” by Louis Armstrong playing in the background. On top of that, they released a promotional poster.
IDK why, but I’m crying this teaser trailer very much.

The animated film is based on the bestselling children’s book by Peter Brown. The series is composed of three books: The Wild Robot, The Wild Robot Escapes, and The Wild Robot Protects. The main character, Roz, is a robot who wakes up on a wild island and figures out that her only way to survive is to befriend the wild animals.
“I won’t lie, The Wild Robot means a great deal to me, and it wasn’t easy handing it over to someone else, but I couldn’t have asked for a better team,” Brown told Books For Keeps.
