Pixar releases first trailer for new movie Soul with Jamie Foxx and Tina Fey

From Digital Spy

Pixar's upcoming movie Soul has dropped its first trailer, and we're already getting serious Inside Out vibes.

The new movie, which includes the vocal talents of Jamie Foxx and Tina Fey, is set in New York and the fantastical world of the You Seminar, where souls learn how to ensure babies have personalities.

In the trailer, Foxx's band teacher Joe Gardner tells the audience to "spend your precious hours doing what will bring out the real you".

However, things get turned upside down when he trips down a manhole and his soul meets that of 86,783,123,522, or 22 (Fey), a rather quirky character to say the least.

22 thinks Earth is terrible, and has spent "hundreds of years" in the You Seminar, but must team up with Joe to help him find his way back.

The movie's creative team previously explained: "Each one of us was born with a soul. That soul didn't just come into the world not prepared. They were all trained at the You Seminar. Their souls are given their quirks, their abilities, their interests and some would say your passions and your dreams. It's all the things that make you, you.

"Once ready, their soul graduates on to join the world and live a life of purpose. At least, that's how things are supposed to go, but in the case of Joe Gardner, there has to be a mistake. His life hasn't gone the way he expected."

This looks like one we'll be watching.

Soul is released on June 19, 2020.
