Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken - In Theaters Next Summer

Sometimes the hero you are meant to be lies just beneath the surface.

This summer, Blue Sky Studios and Reel FX Animation Studios, the creators of Ice Age, The Secret Life of Pets, The Bad Guys, Spirit Untamed, and Turning Red dives into the turbulent waters of high school with a hilarious, heartfelt action comedy about a shy teenager who discovers that she’s part of a legendary royal lineage of mythical sea krakens and that her destiny, in the depths of the oceans, is bigger than she ever dreamed. In theaters Summer 2023.

Sweet, awkward 16-year-old Ruby Gillman (Lana Condor, To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before franchise) is desperate to fit in at Oceanside High, but she mostly just feels invisible. She’s math-tutoring her skater-boyfriend crush Connor (Jaboukie Young-White, Ralph Breaks the Internet, Stange World), who only seems to admire and like her for her fractals, and she’s prevented from hanging out with the cool kids at the beach because her over-protective supermom Agatha Gillman (Oscar® nominee Toni Collette, Knives Out), has forbade Ruby from ever getting in the water.

But when she breaks her mom’s #1 rule, Ruby will discover that she is a direct descendant of the warrior Kraken queens and is destined to inherit the throne from her commanding grandmother, Grandmamah (Academy Award® winner Jane Fonda), the Warrior Queen of the Seven Seas.

The Kraken are sworn to protect the oceans of the world against the vain, power-hungry mermaids who have been battling with the Kraken for eons. There’s one major, and immediate, problem with that: The school’s beautiful, popular new girl, Chelsea (Emmy winner Annie Murphy, Schitt’s Creek) just happens to be a mermaid. Ruby will ultimately need to embrace who she is and go big to protect those she loves most.

Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken stars an extraordinary cast that includes Emmy winner Colman Domingo (Fear the Walking Dead) as Ruby’s supportive dad Arthur Gillman, Emmy nominee Sam Richardson (Veep) as Ruby’s enthusiastic uncle Brill Gillman, and Blue Chapman (Council of Dads) as Ruby’s cool little brother, Sam Gillman.

Directed by Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Kirk DeMicco (Vivo, The Croods), and Chris Wedge (Ice Age, Rio) and produced by Kelly Cooney Cilella, p.g.a. (Trolls World Tour, Trolls), with Faryn Pearl (The Croods: A New Age, Trolls World Tour) serving as co-director, the film features a comedic powerhouse supporting cast, including Emmy nominee Will Forte (The Last Man on Earth), Emmy nominee Nicole Byer (Nailed It!), Liza Koshy (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts; Work It), Ramona Young (Never Have I Ever), Eduardo Franco (Stranger Things), Echo Kellum (Arrow), and award-winning social media creator and podcaster Emma Chamberlain (Anything Goes podcast).
