DreamWorks Animation has just launched their latest trailer for their next project. Forgotten Island. This trailer follows up on previous information released for the film, including a previous trailer, in showing off the premise and characters. H.E.R. and Liza Soberano’s characters, Jo and Raissa, are on full display here, as is the animation. There doesn’t seem to be much new information about the film, but it’s sure to excite fans who were interested in the movie, and bring in some new hopefuls. The film is planned for a September 25 release date in theatres, followed by a streaming window on Netflix and Peacock.

The description for the Forgotten Island trailer describes the premise as such, “While celebrating their last night together, Jo and Raissa stumble upon a mysterious portal that transports them to the fantastical island of Nakali, packed with magical and mythological creatures they grew up hearing stories about from their Filipino families. Some of these figures will become friends, some foes. Joined by well-meaning-but- hapless weredog Raww (Dave Franco) and a small-but-mighty pack of pals, Jo and Raissa must face The Dreaded Manananggal (Tony-winning icon Lea Salonga), the most feared creature on the island. When they discover that the memories of their entire friendship are the price for returning home, Jo and Raissa will race to find a way to leave the island before they forget each other forever.” Universal Pictures is distributing as always.
