Sing

By Reggie's Take on October 28, 2016

From the studio that brought you “Despicable Me” and the “Secret Life of Pets” comes a film about a group of animals looking to win a singing contest.

Written and directed by Garth Jennings, Sing will feature an amazing 65 hit songs from a variety of artist and a original song featuring Stevie Wonder and Ariana Grande.

The main cast for Sing listed below is a pretty big list of Hollywood stars, but when you go to see the movie be sure you pay attention to the credits for some other stars that have also lent their voices to the movie. It’s not known for sure if they actually sang for the movie, but it wouldn’t be to surprising if they did.

A few of the unexpected names you can expect to see scroll up the big screen are directors Wes Anderson, Edgar Wright, and Chris Renaud.

Sing is scheduled to open in theaters on December 21, 2016

Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Seth MacFarlane, Scarlett Johansson, John C. Reilly, Taron Egerton, Tori Kelly, Nick Kroll, Beck Bennett, Nick Offerman, Jennifer Saunders, Garth Jennings, Peter Serafinowicz, Leslie Jones, and Jay Pharoah.

Official Synopsis:
Set in a world like ours but entirely inhabited by animals, Sing stars Buster Moon (Academy Award® winner Matthew McConaughey), a dapper Koala who presides over a once-grand theater that has fallen on hard times. Buster is an eternal optimist—okay, maybe a bit of a scoundrel—who loves his theater above all and will do anything to preserve it. Now facing the crumbling of his life’s ambition, he has one final chance to restore his fading jewel to its former glory by producing the world’s greatest singing competition.
