After last week’s reveal of its animal character posters, Warner Bros. Pictures has now unveiled the individual one-sheets of the human cast of its new animated comedy adventure “Storks.” Check out the posters below and watch the film when it opens in Philippine cinemas on Sept. 22.
In the film, storks deliver babies…or at least they used to. Now they deliver packages for global internet retail giant Cornerstore.com. Junior (Andy Samberg), the company’s top delivery stork, is about to be promoted when the Baby Factory is accidentally activated on his watch, producing an adorable – and wholly unauthorized – baby girl.
Desperate to deliver this bundle of trouble before the boss gets wise, Junior and his friend Tulip, the only human on Stork Mountain, race to make their first-ever baby drop, in a wild and revealing journey that could make more than one family whole and restore the storks’ true mission in the world.
Getting their own posters are the following human characters:
Sarah and Henry Gardner (voice by Jennifer Aniston and Ty Burrell) are two busy parents who have trouble finding time for their son, Nate. As a result, he writes a letter to the storks asking them for a baby brother, although they haven’t been in the kid business for 18 years.
Tulip (voice by Katie Crown) is the last baby made at Stork Mountain. She was orphaned 18 years ago when an accident destroyed her delivery address. “The only thing she knows is Stork Mountain and the world of storks, and she’s desperate to find her parents,” Stoller says.
Nate Gardner (voice by Anton Starkman) ropes his parents into preparing their house for a baby delivery. His folks play along not because they think it will happen, but because they’re reminded how much fun it is to play with their child.
The Baby is the adorable pink-haired toddler who sets the plot in motion.
“Storks” stars Andy Samberg (“Hotel Transylvania”), Kelsey Grammer (“Toy Story 2,” “The Simpsons”), Katie Crown (Cartoon Network’s “Clarence”), Keegan-Michael Key (“The Angry Birds Movie”), Jordan Peele (“Key & Peele”), Jennifer Aniston (“We’re the Millers”), Ty Burrell (“Modern Family”), and Danny Trejo (“The Book of Life”).
The film is directed by Nicholas Stoller (“Neighbors,” BAFTA nominee for “Muppets Most Wanted”) and Doug Sweetland (supervising animator on “Cars,” Oscar-nominated director of the animated short “Presto”), from a screenplay written by Stoller.
“Storks” is produced by Brad Lewis (“Ratatouille”) and Nicholas Stoller. The executive producers are Glenn Ficarra, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, John Requa and Jared Stern.
“Storks” is distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
