summer filled with gelato, pasta and endless scooter rides. Luca shares these adventures with his newfound best friend, but all the fun is threatened by a deeply-held secret: he is a sea monster from another world just below the water's surface.
Stephen Fry has such a distinctive voice, I'm sure he'll be great in the role.
ReplyDeleteHe is all around very distinctive and amazing too.
DeleteMy brother sent me the link for Luca yesterday because his son (my God baby) is named LUCA!! The Inventor looks like a good one and full of history for the kiddies to learn.
ReplyDeleteLuka is a name often used in my country as well, with K instead of C as C is always pronounced as TZ in our language :)
DeleteYou don't see too many stop motion animated films anymore, so what a delight The Inventor will be.
ReplyDeleteLuca sound cute. I do love Pixar, so I'll be sure not to miss it. I'll have to wait for it to hit Disney+ though.
Yes, these days most animated movies look like they were created by the same person which never ceases to amaze me, it is nice seeing other drawing or animation techniques.
DeleteSoooooooooooo cute!
ReplyDeleteVery much so.
