Here's Everything You Need to Know About Pixar's Día de los Muertos Movie, Coco

The movie was announced in 2015, and the teams at Disney and Pixar have been hard at work to meet their Nov. 22 premiere date. Coco is the only new movie coming out from Disney and Pixar in the next few years, with only sequels for Cars, Toy Story, and The Incredibles in the works.

Toy Story 3's director Lee Unkrich and producer Darla K. Anderson have been tied to the film from its conception. Since that movie became the second-highest grossing animated movie ever, the future of Coco looks bright. Adrian Molina is a codirector of the project.

After keeping details under wraps for years, Disney finally gave Entertainment Weekly a preview of what the movie is about. Here is the deal: Miguel Rivera, a boy from a small Mexican village and from a family of shoemakers, has dreams of becoming a famous singer, but his family has a generations-long ban on music after his great-great-grandfather left his wife, Imelda, for a life of touring and performing.

After discovering a connection to his musical idol, Ernesto de la Cruz, Miguel finds himself in the Land of the Dead (there's that Día de los Muertos connection). To find de la Cruz there, Miguel teams up with Héctor, a skeleton, and together they have an adventure to discover the true story behind Miguel's family.

The concept art for Coco was posted to Pixar's Instagram account and shared by the movie's director on Twitter. He revealed the image was "posed by Kristoff Vergne and painted by Sharon Calahan."

Before releasing a short trailer, the team at Pixar gave us a peek at Miguel.

Miguel, his guitar, and his dog, Dante, make an appearance in the gorgeous first poster.

In March, Disney finally released a teaser trailer for the animated movie. In it, we see how Miguel ends up in the Land of the Dead.

Miguel will be voiced by 12-year-old newcomer Anthony Gonzalez, who was found through a regular casting conducted by Pixar and Disney and will be singing in the film, too. The director told EW: "We actually had another kid doing scratch for Miguel who's now 17 or 18, which should tell you how long we've been working on the movie, but his voice changed long ago, and it was actually in trying to find a new voice for the scratch that we found Anthony."

Abuelita, also known as Mama Coco, will be voiced by Renée Victor. Miguel's great-grandmother will be voiced by Ana Ofelia Murguía.

Gael García Bernal will play Héctor, Miguel's sidekick during his visit to the Land of the Dead, lending the all-Latino cast some star power.

Benjamin Bratt, whose mom is Peruvian, is Ernesto de la Cruz. We can't wait to hear him sing in the film!

Jane the Virgin's Jaime Camil will play Miguel's Papá, who hopes his son will join the shoe-making family business.

Sofía Espinosa, who played singer Gloria Trevi in the 2014 movie about her life, is Miguel's encouraging Mamá.

With a name like Chicharrón, we expect Edward James Olmos's animated character in the Land of the Dead to demand attention.

Playing a dual role, Herbert Siguenza will voice Miguel's identical twin uncles, Tío Oscar and Tío Felipe.

Chicano actor Luis Valdez voices Miguel's uncle Tío Berto.

Mexican actor and director Alfonso Arau takes on the role of Miguel's great-grandfather in the Land of the Dead.

You might remember Alanna Ubach as Elle Woods's sidekick in Legally Blonde. This time, the Puerto Rican and Mexican actress will be voicing a very different character: Miguel's great-great-grandmother Mamá Imelda.

Tía Rosita will be voiced by Mexican comedian Selene Luna.

Gabriel Iglesias's part as the head clerk at the Department of Family Reunions in the Land of the Dead is small but sure to be funny.

Cheech Marin will bring his spot-on comedic timing to Coco as a corrections officer in the Land of the Dead.

The host of a talent show in the Land of the Dead will be played by Blanca Araceli.

Miguel's loyal dog, Dante, got his own funny short, where the skinny pup goes through more than a few hurdles to secure a bone as lunch.
