Missing Link is the heartwarming, hilarious family-friendly movie coming to theaters everywhere on March 12.
This post is in partnership with United Artists Releasing. You can read my full disclosure policy here.
I’ve been looking forward to this movie since I saw the first trailer! Missing Link is coming out in theaters today, Friday April 12. Cannot WAIT to take the kids! This story is so cute, and it’s such a unique idea. Animal movies are always my favorite and I love the cast. Read on for the trailer, some photos from the film, and an awesome giveaway!
This April, meet Mr. Link: 8 feet tall, 630 lbs, and covered in fur, but don’t let his appearance fool you… he is funny, sweet, and adorably literal, making him the world’s most lovable legend at the heart of Missing Link, the globe-trotting family comedy adventure from LAIKA. Tired of living a solitary life in the Pacific Northwest, Mr. Link recruits fearless explorer Sir Lionel Frost to guide him on a journey to find his long-lost relatives in the fabled valley of Shangri-La. Along with adventurer Adelina Fortnight, our fearless trio of explorers encounter more than their fair share of peril as they travel to the far reaches of the world to help their new friend. Through it all, the three learn that sometimes you can find a family in the places you least expect.
Watch the trailer below to melt your heart and make you laugh.
Don’t you just love ‘Susan’ already?
The all star cast includes Hugh Jackman, Zoe Saldana, Zach Galifianakis, Timothy Olyphant, David Walliams, Emma Thompson, Matt Lucas, Ching Valdes-Aran, Stephen Fry, Amrita Acharia. Written and directed by Chris Butler, I think this movie is going to be SO, so good!
