Coming Soon wrote that the story of the movie ultimately "plays out as a western survival tale starring a boy and his dog." Only this time, "the boy is a dinosaur and the dog is a boy," as described by the director, Pete Sohn.
Speaking of director, Cinema Blend reported that back in 2013, the production of the new animated movie underwent a bump as the initial director Bob Peterson was removed from the project. It was then placed under Pixar veteran Sohn. The reason for the changes in the production was revealed by Sohn himself during an interview with Eric Eisenberg of Cinema Blend.
In his interview, Sohn said that Peterson initiated the concept in 2009. They worked together to develop it but "then the story got really complicated." That's when they asked the "Partly Cloudy" director to take over. "So they asked me, because I had been with the story already for a while, please take over and find a new take to it," stated Sohn.
The movie will feature the voice of newcomer Raymond Ochoa, as well as the voices of Jeffrey Wright, Anna Paquin, Steve Zahn, A.J. Buckley and Sam Elliot. It will arrive in theaters on Nov. 25.
