After being behind some of the best animations of the last few decades, Aardman Animations, and specifically director Nick Park, will return in 2018. This time around, they’ll be heading back to the prehistoric era in Early Man, which depicts the adventures of a caveman and his sidekick. Ahead of a release in 2018, the first teaser trailer has now arrived.
Sporting a playful vibe that will be familiar to anyone that has seen Aardman’s work, we are introduced to our lead characters before a hunt turns into a threat. It’s a delightful, quick look for what’s sure to be among our most-anticipated films next year. Starring Eddie Redmayne, Tom Hiddleston, Maisie Williams, and Timothy Spall, as well as “The Tribe,” played by Richard Ayoade, Selina Griffiths, Johnny Vegas, Mark Williams, Gina Yashere, and Simon Greenall, check out the trailer below.
Set at the dawn of time, when prehistoric creatures and woolly mammoths roamed the earth, EARLY MAN tells the story of how plucky caveman Dug (voiced by Eddie Redmayne), along with sidekick Hognob, unites his tribe against the mighty Bronze Age in a battle to beat them at their own game. It also marks Nick Park’s first feature film since Academy-Award winning WALLACE AND GROMIT: THE CURSE OF THE WERE-RABBIT. Supported by accomplished screenwriter Mark Burton this new film unleashes an unforgettable cast of hilarious new characters.
Early Man arrives in 2018.
