Turning Red

Turning Red is a 2022 American computer-animated coming-of-age fantasy comedy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It is directed by Domee Shi in her feature directorial debut, from a screenplay written by herself and Julia Cho. The film stars the voices of Rosalie Chiang, Sandra Oh, Ava Morse, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Hyein Park, Orion Lee, Wai Ching Ho, Tristan Allerick Chen, and James Hong. It is the first Pixar film to be solely directed by a woman, the first to take place in Canada, and the second to feature an Asian lead character after Up. The film is Pixar's 25th feature film.
The development of Turning Red began in 2018, after Shi first pitched the idea to Pixar in October 2017. Turning Red premiered in London, England on Everyman Borough Yards in February 21, 2022, and released on Disney+ in countries where the service is available on March 11, 2022, along with a simultaneous limited run at the El Capitan Theatre. It was released theatrically in countries without the streaming service. On June 17, 2021, It was intended for worldwide theatrical release after both Soul (2020) and Luca (2021) were assigned direct-to-streaming releases on Disney+ in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, as the Omicron variant cases rose, on January 7, 2022, the decision was made to shift the film from its theatrical release to its direct-to-streaming release as a Disney+ original. The film received critical acclaim with praise for its story, humor, visuals, animation, voice cast, and use of culture. The film was released in theaters nationwide on February 9, 2024. While it is not currently in the works, Domee Shi has expressed interest in a sequel.https://comicbook.com/movies/news/turning-red-sequel-spoilers-disney-plus-exclusive/
==Synopsis==
Disney and Pixar's Turning Red introduces Mei Lee, a confident, dorky thirteen-year-old torn staying between her mother's dutiful daughter and the chaos of adolescence. Her protective, if not slightly overbearing mother, Ming, is never far from her daughter - an unfortunate reality for the teenager. And as if changes to her interests, relationships and body weren't enough, whenever she gets too excited, she "poofs" into a giant red panda!
