Disney releases the first trailer for its upcoming animated adventure film Strange World. The movie's story centers around a steadfast explorer named Searcher Clade, voiced by Oscar-nominated actor Jake Gyllenhaal (Spider-Man: Far From Home). Arriving in a strange new world where extraordinary creatures roam, Searcher and his family must complete a crucial mission, though their differences threaten to tear them apart. The film is directed by Don Hall and writer Qui Nguyen.

Now, combining retro sci-fi with a contemporary animation style, Walt Disney Animation Studios has shared the first trailer for Strange World. Opening with a black and white 1950s-inspired intro, a narrator grandly warns the audience to prepare for a journey “beyond what is possible.” Evolving into Disney’s modern style, the Clades' spaceship arrives in an unexplored world bursting with color. Inhabited by all manner of gelatinous creatures, it doesn’t take long for the family to find themselves in perilous situations. Check out the trailer below:

The new animated movie will follow the release of Disney’s upcoming motion picture Lightyear, which will make its theatrical debut later this month. As led by Gyllenhaal, Strange World is the actor's second animated feature after voicing Jim Prescott in DreamWorks’ Spirit Untamed last year. The remaining voice cast has yet to be confirmed, but it's likely more information about that will be revealed at some point before the movie comes out. Strange World is scheduled for release on November 23, 2022.
