Can’t stop the feeling! DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures have announced that Trolls 2 is coming on April 10, 2020! They also announced that stars Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake will reprise the roles of Poppy and Branch in the new musical. No word yet on whether or not Timberlake will contribute music, but it seems likely, as he produced the soundtrack for the first film. He performed his Academy Award-nominated Trolls song, “Can’t Stop the Feeling,” to open the Oscars broadcast this past Sunday.
Here is the official info for Trolls 2:
“Can’t stop the feeling as the colorful, wondrous Trolls return for TROLLS 2, the follow-up to 2016’s breakout global hit about how far you’ll go for happiness… and how far you’ll go to get it back. Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake reprise their roles as the eternal optimist Poppy and the curmudgeon Branch in the new musical comedy-adventure from the creators of Shrek. Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Animation’s TROLLS 2 will arrive in theaters on April 10, 2020.”
