“Turning Red” director and writer Domee Shi shares her favorite scene from the film in this video clip as part of Disney/Pixar’s awards season campaign.
Turning Red is one of the animated features nominated for the 2023 Oscars and 2023 Annie Awards, alongside “Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio,” “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish,” and “The Sea Beast.”
“Wendell & Wild” completes the Annie Awards Best Feature nominations, while “Marcel the Shell with Shoes On” joins the Oscars nominees but competes instead in the Annies’ Best Indie Feature category against “Charlotte,” “Inu-Oh,” “Little Nicholas, Happy As Can Be” and “My Father’s Dragon.”

New Pixar trailer teases upcoming original film SOUL
Pete Docter (Monsters, Inc; Up; Inside Out) returns to direct summer 2020 film “Soul,” about a middle school band teacher with jazz dreams and big questions.
While chasing those jazz dreams, Joe Gardner (voiced by Jamie Foxx) finds himself stuck in a “fantastical place” after an unexpected misstep. Here he meets Tina Fey’s character, 22, and the real journey begins.
While his last film, “Inside Out,” was inspired by his daughter Elie, Docter found inspiration from his son for this story.
“It started with my son—he’s 23 now—but the instant he was born, he already had a personality. Where did that come from? I thought your personality developed through your interaction with the world. And yet, it was pretty clear that we’re all born with a very unique, specific sense of who we are.”
“Soul” reaches theaters on June 19, 2020.
