KUALA LUMPUR – Disney Media & Entertainment Distribution announced that Disney and Pixar’s ‘Turning Red’ will premiere exclusively in homes worldwide on Disney+ Hotstar on Friday, March 11.
“Disney+ Hotstar subscribers around the world enthusiastically embraced Pixar’s Academy Award-winning ‘Soul’ and the critically-acclaimed ‘Luca’ when they premiered exclusively on the service.
"We look forward to bringing them Pixar’s next incredible feature film ‘Turning Red’,” said Kareem Daniel, chairman, Disney Media & Entertainment Distribution.
“Given the delayed box office recovery, particularly for family films, flexibility remains at the core of our distribution decisions as we prioritise delivering the unparalleled content of The Walt Disney Company to audiences around the world.”
Disney and Pixar’s ‘Turning Red’ introduces Mei Lee (voice of Rosalie Chiang), a confident, dorky 13-year-old torn between staying her mother’s dutiful daughter and the chaos of adolescence.
Her protective, if not slightly overbearing mother, Ming (voice of Sandra Oh), is never far from her daughter – an unfortunate reality for the teenager. And as if changes to her interests, relationships and body weren’t enough, whenever she gets too excited (which is practically always), she “poofs” into a giant red panda!
Directed by Academy Award winner Domee Shi (Pixar short'Bao') and produced by Lindsey Collins ‘Turning Red’ releases on March 11, 2022. – The Vibes, January 12, 2022
