Plot

Buster and his new cast now have their sights set on debuting a new show at the Crystal Tower Theater in glamorous Redshore City. But with no connections, he and his singers must sneak into the Crystal Entertainment offices, run by the ruthless wolf mogul Jimmy Crystal, where the gang pitches the ridiculous idea of casting the lion rock legend Clay Calloway in their show. Buster must embark on a quest to find the now-isolated Clay and persuade him to return to the stage.

About Sing 2

Sing 2 is a 2021 American animated musical comedy film written and directed by Garth Jennings. Produced by Universal Pictures and Illumination, it is the sequel to Sing (2016) and the second film in the franchise. The film stars the voices of Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, Taron Egerton, Tori Kelly, Nick Kroll, and Nick Offerman reprising their roles from the first film, with Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Pharrell Williams, Letitia Wright, Eric André, Chelsea Peretti, and Bono joining the cast. The story is set after the events of the first film with Buster Moon and his group putting on a show in Redshore City while working to impress an entertainment mogul (Cannavale) and enlist a reclusive rock star (Bono) to perform with the group. Like its predecessor, the film features songs from many artists, most of which are performed diegetically. Sing 2 had its world premiere at the AFI Fest on November 14, 2021, and was theatrically released in the United States on December 22 by Universal. The film received mostly positive reviews from critics and grossed $408 million against a budget of $85 million, becoming the highest-grossing animated film of 2021 and the tenth-highest-grossing film of 2021. A sequel is in development.
