“I don’t think I realized how lucky I was to have this team,” said franchise star Anna Kendrick of DreamWorks Animation Trolls unite.
Speaking at Deadline’s Contenders Film: Los Angeles event, the Oscar nominee said: “I have other friends who have done other animated films and they’re like, ‘Yeah, that’s cool – you can show up in your pajamas.’ But it’s a bit boring, like there’s someone behind glass and you do three times in a row and you just see it [hear] … “Oh, that was great.” Do you want to try three more?”
Director Walt Dohrn and producer Gina Shay were also on the podium.
NSYNC alum Justin Timberlake is back for the third film in the toon series. It’s all about the Poptrolls and the five members of BroZone, a singing group of five, who are about to make their final performance without knowing it. The pressure to achieve “perfect family harmony” is great. a musical phenomenon that can destroy diamonds. BroZone is at the height of its fame, with songs like “Girl, Baby, Baby” and “Baby, Girl, Girl” aptly summing up the era.

“We just thought maybe 10 years had passed since I shot the first film because the films are so labor intensive and take so long to get out in theaters,” Kendrick said.
The mega-platinum boys of NSYNC – Timberlake, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass, JC Chasez and Chris Kirkpatrick – are teaming up again and releasing their first song in twenty years, “Better Place,” at the end of September.
