Get ready for fun at the movies! This spring, an old favorite is returning to the big screen with an exciting young actor in the starring role. And a new animated feature will introduce moviegoers to the citizens of a magical city. Here are two TFK tips about must-see films coming soon.

Opposites Attract

Step into a magical city in Elemental, the latest film from Disney and Pixar. Its citizens are grouped according to the four elements: fire, water, land, and air. The story follows a fire elemental, Ember Lumen, and a water elemental, Wade Ripple, who meet and fall in love although they can’t even hug.

Ember and Wade face challenges such as personality differences and judgment from their families. But together, they learn that they have more in common than they expected.

This colorful animated adventure begins on June 16.

Beyond the Sea

Dive back into the sea on May 26 with this live-action remake of a classic Disney film. The Little Mermaid stars Halle Bailey as Ariel, a mermaid fascinated by the human world.

After rescuing Prince Eric from a shipwreck, Ariel is determined to explore life on land. Against her father’s wishes, she makes a deal with a sea witch named Ursula, trading her voice for a pair of legs.

Audiences will love rediscovering this beloved tale. It features music by Aladdin composer Alan Menken and Encanto composer Lin-Manuel Miranda.
