Co-written by Mike Jones, Pete Docter, and Kemp Powers and directed by Docter and Powers, Soul approaches a subject we know about intrinsically but perhaps not totally or assuredly know. We are a spirit or soul, not our body.
Pixar brings the topic to the movie in which the storyline is hush-hush in the early days of promotion. The voice actors include Jamie Foxx, Tina Fey, John Ratzenberger, and Ahmir-Khalib Thompson.
A jazz musician, voiced by Foxx, lost his passion for playing music. But bounces back when he nails a gig. Then, unfortunately, he mysteriously transports out of his body. While out of his body, he must find his way back with the help of an infant soul learning about herself.
Known for the episodic Star Trek: Discovery, Powers has made a foot in the film industry. Recognized for several Pixar-related movies, Docter’s most notable is Toy Story, including UP, Inside Out, and Wall-E.
Watching the next trailer confirms my excitement, and I look forward to seeing this movie because the message is so prevalent.
