The year is almost over and it’s already ending on a good note for fans of Illumination Entertainment’s Sing. During the 2021 Holiday season, Sing 2 will hit theaters. Ending the five-year wait for the long-anticipated sequel to the best-animated musicals. And Sing 2 will be something to look forward to, especially when big names in music like Pharrel, Bono, and Halsey are added to the line-up. In addition to these top-notch musicians, Black Panther’s Letitia Wright, and comedians Eric Andre and Chelsea Peretti are also new to the cast.
Sing 2 combines dozens of classic rock and pop hit songs, electrifying performances, breathtaking artistry, and Illumination’s signature humor and heart into the definitive feel-good cinematic event of next year.
Buster Moon, the can-do Koala, and his all-star cast of animal performers prepare to launch their most dazzling stage extravaganza yet in the entertainment capital of the world. But first, they have to persuade the world’s most reclusive rock star Clay Calloway (Bono) to join them.
Buster (Matthew McConaughey) and his cast have turned the New Moon Theater into a local hit, but Buster has his eyes on a bigger prize: Debuting a new show at the Crystal Tower Theater in glamorous Redshore City. But with no connections, Buster and his cast, including harried mother pig Rosita (Reese Witherspoon), rocker porcupine Ash (Scarlett Johansson), earnest gorilla Johnny (Taron Egerton), shy elephant Meena (Tori Kelly) and, of course, porcine provocateur extraordinaire Gunter (Nick Kroll), have to sneak their way into the world-famous Crystal Entertainment offices. It won’t be easy since it’s run by run by a ruthless mogul wolf named Jimmy Crystal (Bobby Cannavale).
In a desperate attempt to get Mr. Crystal’s attention, Gunter spontaneously pitches an outrageous idea that Buster quickly runs with, promising that their new show will star lion rock legend Clay Calloway (Bono). Problem is, Buster has never met Clay, an artist who shut himself away from the world more than a decade ago after the loss of his wife and hasn’t been seen since.
As Gunter helps Buster dream up an out-of-this-world theatrical masterpiece, and the pressure (and sinister threats) from Mr. Crystal mount, Buster embarks on a quest to find Clay and persuade him to return to the stage. What begins as Buster’s dream of big-time success becomes an emotional reminder of the power of music to heal even the most broken heart.
