— Disney•Pixar (@DisneyPixar) August 15, 2015“The movie will be mostly set at the California Marine Biology Institute, a huge complex of sea life rehabilitation and aquarium, where Dory was born and raised,” Pixar President Jim Morris said last December. “We will get to meet new characters, like an octopus, sea lions, a beluga whale, among others.”
The beluga whale in question will be voiced by Ty Burrell, who starred in Zack Snyder’s Dawn of the Dead before going on to appear alongside Ed O’Neill in Modern Family.
The film will feature the voice talents of Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Diane Keaton and Eugene Levy. Finding Dory opens June 17, 2016. You can keep track of upcoming releases on our movie release calendar.
