Soul Poster Teases Acclaimed Pixar Movie’s Theatrical Release

After over three years since Soul made its exclusive streaming debut on Disney+, Pixar’s acclaimed animated fantasy comedy will finally make its way to the theaters after it was postponed due to the pandemic.

In anticipation of its theatrical release on January 12, Soul has received a brand new Dolby poster, featuring Jamie Foxx‘s jazz pianist player Joe Gardner. In addition to Soul, Pixar will also be releasing two other popular films that went straight to streaming, such as 2021’s Luca and 2022’s Turning Red. The former will arrive in theaters on March 22, 2024, while the latter will have its theatrical debut on February 9, 2024.

Who was the cast of Soul?

Soul was directed by Academy Award winner Pete Docter (Inside Out, Up), co-directed by Kemp Powers (One Night in Miami). The story follows Joe Gardner, a middle-school band teacher who dreams of playing in the best jazz club in town before a misstep causes him to arrive in The Great Before — a place where souls meet their personalities.

It featured the voices of Foxx, Tina Fey, Phylicia Rashad, Ahmir Questlove Thompson, Angela Bassett and Daveed Diggs. It was produced by Academy Award nominee Dana Murray, p.g.a. (Pixar short Lou), with Jon Batiste, Trent Reznor, and Atticus Ross handling its music and score, respectively.
