“Groove Tails,” the upcoming animated feature from “Twilight” producers Imprint Entertainment and “The Lego Ninjago Movie” writer/director Bob Logan, has attracted a starry voice cast.
Leading the ensemble are Ansel Elgort (“Baby Driver,” “The Fault in Our Stars”), Halle Bailey (“The Little Mermaid,” “The Color Purple”), Ludacris (“Fast & Furious” franchise, “Crash”), Alan Ritchson (“Reacher,” “War Machine”), J.B. Smoove (“Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “Mapleworth Murders”), CeeLo Green (“Hotel Transylvania”), and international recording artist and actress Agnez Mo (“Reacher”).
Producers will introduce “Groove Tails” — based on an original screenplay by Johnny Mack — to buyers and the international animation community at the upcoming Annecy International Animation Film Festival.
Set in New York and billed as a “four-quadrant, music-driven animated film with dance throughout,” “Groove Tails” follows an enthusiastic young mouse with dreams of becoming a world-famous dancer. When his father dismisses those ambitions, he embarks on a journey alongside an unlikely group of misfits. As per the description, they must “discover their own unique rhythms while fighting to save the only place they’ve ever truly called home.”
