Pixar’s Cars 3 is a huge change of pace for the franchise. The film sees Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) blindsided when a new generation of faster, more powerful, and younger racers join the racing circuit. Determined to stay in the sport that he loves, Lightning goes through a new-age training regiment with the help of Cruz Ramirez (Cristela Alonzo), an eager young technician who has her own plans for winning. And while they might not agree on which training method works, they discover they need each other to reach their goals more than they realized.
We were fortunate enough to attend the press day of Pixar’s latest animated film where the attendees talked about who inspires them, some of their personal struggles, how one person can make the difference, and more. Check out what they had so say here below.
The first teaser trailer for Disney”¢Pixar’s Cars 3 was released back in November, and it was just a little bit depressing, especially if you’re a fan of the series and Lightning McQueen.
Now an extended look version of that trailer has been released. It starts off with the same depressing sequence we saw in the teaser, and is followed by about 40 seconds of new footage that we haven’t seen before.
You can check out the new trailer below, along with some recently released character videos for Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson), Cruz Ramirez (Cristela Alonzo), and Jackson Storm (Armie Hammer).
Pixar’s Cars film franchise hasn’t been the most popular with critics, but it is one of the most lucrative. While the first two films had a fish out of water theme, Cars 3 seems to take a dark and gritty turn for the series as we see Lighting McQueen suffer a devastating crash forcing him to have a new lease on life as he sets out to prove to a new generation of cars that he is still the best in the world.
