There’s a new LEGO movie coming out and while the wait will be long, we could not be more excited!
Although LEGO: THE PIECE OF RESISTANCE isn’t set to hit theatres until February 7, 2014, more information is slowly being released about the characters and the plot!
The film will be a 3D animated movie with an incredible cast, including Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson, Nick Offerman, Alison Brie, Morgan Freeman, Will Arnett, Elizabeth Banks and Chris Pratt as voice actors. The movie is said to be a cross of live action and animation, with elements of comedy, action and adventure thrown into the mix!
The film follows an innocent LEGO figure named Emmet (Chris Pratt) after he is identified as the heroic Master Builder by a girl named Lucy (Alison Brie). He soon gets pulled into a mission to stop villains President Business (Will Ferrell) and Bad Cop (Liam Neeson), from taking over the Universe. Batman (Will Arnett) and a mystic by the name of Vitruvius (Morgan Freeman) decide to tag along for the ride as well!
The movie will be directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the directors of CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS.
Last spring, Phil Lord revealed: “It is the story of basically a young man who doesn’t have a creative bone in his body and [he] has to always build things from the instructions, he’s an ‘instructions worker’. In the LEGO city, they build buildings, and it turns out in this universe it’s illegal to build apart from the instructions. So what he finds out is that he’s actually [a] descendant from these like super creative Jedi-type people who are called ‘Master Builders’ and he has been charged with saving the universe from being frozen together by an evil bad guy, so over the course of the movie he has to unlearn all of that lame-o, uncreative stuff and learn how to build without all of the instructions in order to save the universe.”
With everyone’s favourite DC Comics characters, including LEGO Superman, joining the fun, this movie will likely dominate at the box office.
