Soul
The computer animation wizards at Pixar prepare to dazzle audiences with another high-concept comedy adventure courtesy of director Pete Docter (Up, Inside Out) and co-director Kemp Powers. Joe Gardner (voiced by Jamie Foxx) is a middle school music teacher in New York City, who fervently believes that "music is life". He shares this passion with his mother (Phylicia Rashad) and auditions to play piano at a popular jazz club as part of a quartet led by Dorothea Williams (Angela Bassett). On his way home from impressing Dorothea, Joe tumbles down an open manhole and his soul becomes separated from his body. Joe refuses to travel into the light of The Great Beyond and finds himself instead in The Great Before, where fledgling souls develop personalities and quirks before they are sent to Earth to embark on their greatest adventure: living. Joe joins forces with Soul 22 (Tina Fey) to find a path back to his faltering body and reunite with the people he loves.
