Essential Details on Pixar’s ‘Elemental

“This year, a new adventure from The Walt Disney Company and Pixar Animation Studios will premiere. After the disappointing release of Lightyear (2022) last year, all eyes are on Pixar’s Elemental (2023), focusing on Ember and Wade’s story. Here’s a comprehensive preview of this upcoming summer animated film.

Disney Pixar in 2023: What’s the Pixar lineup for this year? 2023 will bring just one release from Walt Disney Pictures and Pixar Animation Studios. While last year saw both Turning Red (2022) and Lightyear, the former was exclusively for Disney+. Despite being a non-theatrical release, Turning Red was well-received and even earned a nomination for Best Animated Feature at the 95th Academy Awards, though it faced criticism for its portrayal of adolescence.

Lightyear, however, faced challenges. Despite the backing of the billion-dollar Toy Story franchise and its inclusion of LGBTQ+ characters, the film led by Chris Evans struggled at the box office and received mixed audience reactions. A similar outcome occurred for Disney in 2022 with Strange World, which ended with a concerning $73 million.

Disney Pixar’s Elemental: What’s the premise of Pixar’s Elemental? Pixar Animation describes Elemental as follows:

In a city where fire, water, land, and air residents live together, a fiery young woman and a go-with-the-flow guy are about to discover something elemental: How much they actually have in common.

Set in the vibrant Element City, this film is Pixar’s 27th feature.

Cast of Elemental: Ember Lumen is portrayed by Leah Lewis, while Mamoudou Athie plays Wade Ripple. Other cast members include Ronnie del Carmen as Bernie Lumen (Ember’s father), Shila Ommi as Cinder Lumen (Ember’s mother), Mason Wertheimer as Clod, Wendi McLendon-Covey as Gale, Catherine O’Hara as Brook Ripple, Joe Pera as Fern Grouchwood, and Matt Yang King as Alan Ripple (Wade’s father).

Director of Elemental: The director of Elemental is Peter Sohn, known for The Good Dinosaur (2015). The film is produced by Denise Ream, with a story and screenplay crafted by Kat Likkel, John Hoberg, Brenda Hsueh, and Peter Sohn.

Release Date of Elemental: Elemental will hit theaters on June 16, 2023, marking a significant summer release for Pixar Animation. However, given last year’s mixed reception, the studio’s box office prospects might be uncertain. This situation is made more complex by Warner Bros. Discovery moving up the release of The Flash (2023), potentially posing competition.

Elemental Trailer: Yes, the recent full trailer for Elemental is available for viewing. It has elicited diverse responses, with some finding the visuals lackluster and generic. The excitement Pixar sought after revealing more at D23 Expo 2022 hasn’t quite matched the levels of blockbusters like Toy Story, Finding Dory (2016), or The Incredibles 2 (2018). Elemental is an original story, distinguishing it from the sequels Pixar has been known for.

What Lies Ahead for Pixar: Following Elemental, Pixar has two confirmed upcoming films.

Elio (2024), directed by Adrian Molina, will release on March 1, 2024, starring Yonas Kibreab and America Ferrera. Shortly after, the sequel to Inside Out (2015) will debut in June. Inside Out 2 (2024) features Amy Poehler returning as Joy, directed by Kelsey Mann.

Elemental’s success at the box office will significantly influence Pixar’s future storytelling. Are you ready to explore Element City?”
