Sometimes you wish they’d pull back a little on the throttle. Chris Renaud ( Despicable Me) and his co-director Yarrow Cheney pull out all the stops in the too-busy script by Cinco Paul, Ken Daurio and Brian Lynch ( Minions). Have you ever imagined what your pet does when you leave the house? Then this is the movie for you. The same principle applies to all of you who see The Secret Life of Pets, an animated fluffball that does everything to drive you crazy and ends up by being totally irresistible. This talented cast is directed by Peggy Holmes who has previously directed animated films for Disney including The Secret of the Wings, The Pirate Fairy, and The Little Mermaid: Ariel’s Beginning.“Another Sucker Found” - that was the sign on the take-home box that held the first pet I ever adopted, a kitty named Fitzie.
Whoopi Goldberg, who voices the security officer for the land of luck, is an actress and comedian with a long resume that includes films like Ghost, Sister Act, and The Color Purple. John Ratzenberger who voices Rootie, an unlucky root, has previously done voice work for Disney classics including Coco, Toy Story, and Inside Out. Fonda lends her voice to the role of Babe the Dragon in Luck.
She starred in the classic They Shoot Horses, Don’t They? And more recently starred in Netflix’s critically acclaimed Grace and Frankie. Jane Fonda has a long and prolific career as an actress. Simon Pegg voices Bob the cat and is known for co-writing and starring in Shaun of the Dead and for playing Scotty in the recent Star Trek films. She has made quite a name for herself on Broadway, having wowed as Kim in Miss Saigon and Eurydice in Hadestown.
Noblezada voices the luckless Sam and this will be one of her first film roles. Luck features the voice acting talents of Simon Pegg, Eva Noblezada, Jane Fonda, John Ratzenberger, and Whoopi Goldberg. As Luck is one of the rare family films with a G rating that means even the youngest of leprechauns should be able to enjoy this one!
Luck tells the story of Sam, the world’s most unlucky person, who ends up venturing to the land of luck after she accidentally loses a lucky coin. Why not celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day in August then? Luck, the new movie from Skydance Animation, releases on August 5 and could be the perfect excuse to celebrate the luck of the Irish in the middle of summer. With Christmas in July come and gone and Halloween still months away, we’re currently in a bit of a holiday drought.
