First Teaser for Pixar’s ‘Hopper’
The first teaser for Disney and Pixar’s next animated comedy Hoppers was unveiled today, detailing a fast-paced story of an animal lover named Mabel (voice of Piper Curda), who jumps at the opportunity to try new technology that allows her to communicate with animals in an exciting new way.
In Hoppers, scientists have discovered how to “hop” human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals, allowing people to communicate with animals as animals! Using the new technology, Mabel (Curda) will uncover mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined. Produced by Nicole Paradis Grindle, Hoppers also features the voices of Bobby Moynihan and Jon Hamm.
Pixar’s Daniel Chong directs the film “In Hoppers‘ the question we’re answering is: ‘What if we could understand and communicate with the animal world?’” says Chong. “Our main character, Mabel, gets to discover the animal kingdom as an animal, which can be weird and often hilarious. Mabel undercover in the animal world leads to a wild, roller coaster ride of a movie, with all the heart you expect from a classic Pixar film. It’s going to be so much fun to watch in the theater; I can’t wait for everyone to see it.”
Pixar’s Hoppers hits theaters on March 6, 2026. Here is the first teaser and poster.
