Bong Joon Ho's Ally: Deep-Sea Adventure

0:00On April 28th, Academy Award winner Bong Joon Ho is diving into animation with his debut feature, called Ally. It's about a curious piglet squid from the Deep South Pacific Ocean, who dreams of reaching the surface and starring in a wildlife dock. When a plane crashes nearby, she teams up with oddball friends for an epic adventure full of humor, heart, and stunning underwater action. The project kicked off back in 2019, was Bong directing and co-writing the script alongside Jason Yu from Sleep. Real Marine critters like the actual piglet squid inspired the story, mixing friendship and bravery themes as sea life clashes with humans. Fans are buzzing since Parasite swept four Oscars, including Best Picture, back in 2020. This marks Bong's first animated flick in his follow-up to Mickey 17 from last year. Top talents from 12 countries are on board, like Animation Pros from Toy Story 4, Shrek, and Doons' Visual Effects House. Big update just dropped, Neon snagged North American rights, planning a wide theater rollout in 2027 after completion in the first half of that year.
