A movie focusing solely on emojis? Yup, you read that right.
The idea for the movie first came around in July last year, and since then, several more details have been released regarding the movie. The latest news to reach us is the casting of T. J. Miller as the voice actor for the titular character of “EmojiMovie: Express Yourself”.
While no solid information have been released regarding the plot, Sony Pictures Animation president, Kristine Belson, gave us a short introduction of Emoji Valley, where the movie will take place in. “Inside your phone, there’s a secret world, and we enter through the text app where we discover Emoji Valley, where the industrious Emoji live and work,” said Belson.
To keep you excited for the movie, Sony Animation also released a spoof video of Miller “auditioning” for his role in the movie.
