About Onward

Onward is a 2020 American animated fantasy adventure film directed by Dan Scanlon and written by Scanlon, Jason Headley, and Keith Bunin. Produced by Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures, it stars the voices of Tom Holland, Chris Pratt, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Octavia Spencer. The film, set in a suburban fantasy world for the modern day, follows two elf brothers named Ian and Barley Lightfoot (Holland and Pratt, respectively) who set out on a quest to find an artifact that will temporarily revive their dead father, Wilden (Kyle Bornheimer) for twenty-four hours. After directing Monsters University (2013), Scanlon was encouraged to develop personal stories. The concept of Onward is based on the death of Scanlon's father, who died in a car accident when Scanlon and his older brother were very young children, and their relationship with each other.
