During the Pixar portion of the Disney / Pixar presentation at D23 Expo today, we got a first look at their upcoming film. Elementary, and we also have some new story details to share! We have a photo, some concept art and a poster.
We’ve seen very little of this film before today, so I was pretty excited to finally see which director Peter Sohn and manufacturer Denise reams had in store for us. I can honestly say I was not disappointed.
We have been given for the first time a little background in the world we will enter. The story takes place in a city where the Earth-air, fire and water elements live. However, due to the composition of each element, they do not normally interact with each other.
This story centers on two elements who find a friendship despite their differences. Ember is a tough and fiery young woman, and Wade is a fun, cheeky and trendy guy.
Actors Mamudou Athie (Jurassic world: domination) And Leah Lewis (Half of it) were introduced as main characters Wade (water) and Ember (fire) respectively. They explained that the film dives into how two people who are as different as possible can be friends.
When he introduced the film to the public, Sohn gave us an idea of the origin of this idea:
The idea [for Elemental] started with my parents. As immigrants to the United States from Korea in the 1970s, they had no family, nothing. But they have managed to create a life here in New York and, just like them, many people have left their people and their families in a new land, with hopes and dreams, all mixed in one big salad bowl of cultures, languages and neighborhoods.
Ream also added that the story is about “anyone who has ever made a sacrifice or taken a risk, set in the hustle and bustle of the city, but with a twist.”
We were treated to the trailer, and that’s what sold me in the film. The trailer was not released online because the animation is still unfinished. But the feeling behind the film was conveyed perfectly.
It seems to be a beautiful representation of the struggles that arise from trying to bring together cultures that have a history of avoiding each other. Take a look at some of the images that have been deleted from the panel and let us know what you think.
Elementary will be released on June 16, 2023.
