This one is coming only this Christmas but we already have a new trailer and character posters as well: December 22nd, 2021, is bringing us SING 2 the sequel to the super popular 2016 animated adventure. The sequel was both written and directed by Garth Jennings who was behind the helm in the first one too which earned rather stunning $634 million in the cinemas around the world with its stellar voice cast and dazzling pop hits covered in it!
IN SING 2
Buster (Matthew McConaughey) and his cast have turned their theater into a local hit, but Buster has his
eyes on a bigger prize: Debuting a new show at the Crystal Tower
Theater in glamorous Redshore City.
But with no connections,
Bono is new cast addition as Calloway
Buster and his cast, including harried mother
pig Rosita (Reese Witherspoon), rocker porcupine Ash (Scarlett Johansson), earnest gorilla Johnny (Taron Egerton), shy elephant Meena (Tori Kelly) and, of course, porcine provocateur extraordinaire Gunter (Nick Kroll),
have to sneak their way into the world-famous Crystal Entertainment
offices, run by a ruthless mogul wolf named Jimmy Crystal (Bobby Cannavale).
In a desperate attempt to get his attention, Gunter spontaneously
pitches an outrageous idea that Buster quickly runs with, promising that
their new show will star lion rock legend Clay Calloway (Bono).
Problem is, Buster has never met Clay, an artist who shut himself away
from the world more than
Taron Egerton and Scarlett Johansson are Johnny and Ash
a decade ago after the loss of his wife
and hasn’t been seen since.
As Gunter helps Buster dream up an out-of-this-world theatrical
masterpiece, and the pressure (and sinister threats) from Mr. Crystal
mount, Buster embarks on a
Reese Witherspoon and Tori Kelly are Rosita and Meena
quest to find Clay and persuade him to return
to the stage. What begins as Buster’s dream of big-time success becomes
an emotional reminder of the power of music to heal even the most
broken heart.
What do you do when Hollywood Spy reaches 5 million visitors? I guess you SING like all these adorable animals are doing in the new animated movie we're spotlighting today with the new character posters! Coming from Illumination Entertainment it will bring music to cinemas this December featuring more than 85 classic pop tracks from famous artists!
SING YOUR TAIL OUT! In a world populated by anthropomorphic animals, a koala named Buster Moon (Matthew McConaughey) works to keep his theatre from closing down. To this end, Buster and his sheep friend Eddie (John C. Reilly)
hold a singing contest to raise money, and the entire town auditions
for a part in the show. The leading five are an overworked pig named
Rosita (Reese Witherspoon) with her pig partner named Gunter (Nick Kroll), an arrogant and gambling white mouse named Mike (Seth MacFarlane), a punk rock porcupine named Ash (Scarlett Johansson), a timid teenage elephant named Meena (Tori Kelly), and a British gorilla named Johnny (Taron Egerton), who wants to sing instead of following his family's criminal footsteps.
STELLAR VOICE CAST
The exquisitely stellar voice cast includes Matthew McConaughey as Buster Moon, an optimistic koala, who plans to save his theatre from closure by holding a singing competition; Reese Witherspoon as Rosita, a domestic pig, who gave up her teenage music dreams to become a devoted wife of Norman, and mother to 25 piglets;
Seth MacFarlane as Mike, a white jazz mouse with a big Frank Sinatra-esque voice and an arrogant attitude;
Scarlett Johansson as Ash, a crested porcupine punk rocker who takes part in an alternative rock music group with her boyfriend;
John C. Reilly as Eddie, a Suffolk sheep, and Buster's partner that doubts the future of the theatre; Tori Kelly as Meena, a teenage Indian elephant with an exquisite voice, and severe stage fright;
Taron Egerton as Johnny, an English accented mountain gorilla, who wants to sing, but his father wants him to follow his family’s criminal footsteps;

FUNKY'SING' TEASER
IS BASICALLY ANIMAL X FACTOR!
To cheer up the start of the week, here's the funky first teaser trailer for this Christmas' animated movie SING! Matthew McConaughey is Buster Moon, a koala whose once-bustling theatre is on the skids and who comes up with a plan to revive it: by holding a singing contest that’s open to everyone and boasts a $100,000 prize. Naturally, it draws the talented, the not-as-talented and the William Hungs of the animal kingdom. Among the top contestants are a crooning, conning mouse (Seth MacFarlane), a teenage pachyderm with stage fright (Tori Kelly), a wiped-out sow (Reese Witherspoon) with a Duggar-like brood of piglets, a wanted gorilla (Taron Egerton) looking to escape his family’s felonious past and a punk-rock porcupine (Scarlett Johansson) trying to break free from an overbearing boyfriend. Got all that?
Although tons of new animated movies await us in the fresh new 2016, definitely the most adorable one could be SING which will bring singing animals into theatres December 21st just in time for Christmas! Today you can check out the first photos of the main characters who will get their voices from Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Seth MacFarlane, Scarlett Johansson, John C. Reilly, Taron Egerton and Tori Kelly, in a musical comedy about finding the shining star that lives inside all of us. The movie will feature more than 85 hit pop songs!
SINGING KOALAS, OVERTAXED PIGS AND TIMID ELEPHANTS Set in a world like ours but entirely inhabited by animals, SING stars Buster Moon (MatthewMcConaughey),
a dapper Koala who presides over a once-grand theatre that has fallen
on hard times. Buster is an eternal optimist, okay, maybe a bit of a
scoundrel, who loves his theatre above all and will do anything to
preserve it. Now facing the crumbling of his life's ambition, he has one
final chance to restore his fading jewel to its former glory by
producing the world's greatest singing competition. Five lead
contestants emerge: A mouse (Seth MacFarlane) who croons as smoothly as he cons, a timid teenage elephant (Tori Kelly) with an enormous case of stage fright, an overtaxed mother pig (Reese Witherspoon) run ragged tending a litter of 25 piglets, a young gangster gorilla (Taron Egerton) looking to break free of his family's felonies, and a punk-rock porcupine (Scarlett Johansson)
struggling to shed her arrogant boyfriend and go solo. Each animal
arrives under Buster's marquee believing that this is their shot to
change the course of their life.
