To celebrate the forthcoming release of The Emoji Movie, and indeed World Emoji Day, which is today (July 17th), we have a brand new exclusive team featurette from the feature animation, which releases in August.
The Emoji Movie unlocks the never-before-seen secret world inside your smartphone.
Hidden within the messaging app is Textopolis, a bustling city where all your favorite emojis live, hoping to be selected by the phone’s user. In this world, each emoji has only one facial expression – except for Gene (T.J. Miller), an exuberant emoji who was born without a filter and is bursting with multiple expressions. Determined to become “normal” like the other emojis, Gene enlists the help of his handy best friend Hi-5 (James Corden) and the notorious code breaker emoji Jailbreak (Anna Faris). Together, they embark on an epic “app-venture” through the apps on the phone, each its own wild and fun world, to find the Code that will fix Gene. But when a greater danger threatens the phone, the fate of all emojis depends on these three unlikely friends who must save their world before it’s deleted forever.
The Emoji Movie arrives in cinemas on 4th August. Check out our exclusive featurette courtesy of Sony Pictures below.
