Disney’s sci-fi and incredibly imaginative animation movie Strange World released its first teaser trailer and main poster on June 6.
The teaser is fairly reminiscent of sci-fi movie concepts from the 50s including dramatic narration and graphics. Explorers in the movie, the Clade family, travel around an alien planet filled with eccentric creatures and plants.
Strange World’s teaser looks like a perfect balance of old and new animation styles, bridging the gap between the two worlds.
The teaser has garnered much attention and currently sits at a whopping 2.2 million views on YouTube.
Disney has scored brownie points from the audience for thinking out of the box with creatures such as a walking cliff, gooey pets, and glowing starfishes that move around like Tarzan.
Masterminds behind Strange World are director Don Hall and Qui Nguyen. The duo previously worked together on Raya and the Last Dragon. Meanwhile, Ngyuen is the screenplay writer and co-director of the sci-fi movie.
The lead voice actor in Strange World is SpiderMan: Far From Home’s Jake Gyllenhaal as Searcher Clade, the son of an ambitious and witty explorer.
The adventure movie has layers of family drama, centering around Searcher’s relationship with his father. While the entire family is made up of explorers, Searcher does not wish to follow his dad’s footsteps.
Meanwhile, Wreck-It Ralph’s Alan Tudyk will also be joining Gyllenhaal.
Disney has also released a main poster for the movie. It also has a retro concept and graphics similar to those used in Indiana Jones movies.
In the poster, the Clade family looks at the vast wonderland of the strangest creatures and atmosphere as far as their eyes can take it.
The tagline warns people of the bizarre adventure that awaits them by saying,
Journey to a place where nothing is as it appears!

One thing is for certain – Gyllenhaal’s Searcher Clade will take everyone on an exciting adventure in Strange World on November 23.
