If you like animal-themed animated movies like “Zootopia” and “The Secret Life Of Pets”, then you will love “Sing”!
Universal Studios and Illumination Entertainment’s recently dropped a heartwarming teaser trailer for the upcoming animated musical-comedy that stars a line-up of Hollywood A-listers.
Much like “Zootopia”, “Sing” is also set in a modern city that is entirely inhabited by animals and it centres around “the world’s greatest singing competition” that is produced by optimistic theatre owner, Buster Moon the Koala (played by Matthew McConaughey), who is determined to save his theatre at any cost.
The movie also focuses on the competition’s 5 lead contestants: Mike the jazzy mouse (played by Seth MacFarlane), Meena the shy teenage elephant (played by Torri Kelly), Rosita the over-worked mother pig (played by Reese Witherspoon), Johnny the gangster gorilla (played by Taron Egerton), and Ash the punky crested porcupine (played by Scarlett Johansson).
Each animal arrives under Buster’s roof believing that this is their shot to change the course of their life.

According to USA Today, “Sing” will present more than 85 songs, from the 1940s to the present. “When you start to see these animals sing, it’s absolutely magical and hysterical,” said producer Chris Meledandri.
