The first trailer for upcoming film Missing Link has been revealed, and it looks set to be one of the most stunning animations of 2019.
Hugh Jackman and Zach Galifianakis feature in the upcoming movie, which follows an intrepid adventurer in search of the mythical creature which forms the ‘missing link’ in human ancestry.
The clip sees Jackman’s Sir Lionel frost encounter Mr Link — a loveable and surprisingly intelligent creature voiced by Zach Galifianakis.
After a disarming first meeting, the pair form an unlikely friendship and set off together in search of Mr. Link’s distant relatives.
They seek out the help of Adelina Fortnight (Zoe Saldana), who holds the map to the ancient region of Shangri-La, where they believe Mr Link’s family are found.
Over 65 sets were created to capture the spot-motion footage, and as well as being one of the most striking animations set to arrive next year, it also features one of the strongest cast lists.
Stephen Fry, Emma Thompson, Little Britain pair Matt Lucas and David Walliams, Ching Valdez-Aran and Game of Thrones’ Amrita Acharia all lend their voices to the production.
The film is directed by Kubo and the Two Strings’ Chris Butler and is released in UK cinemas on April 12 2019.
