Dreamworks Animation plunges into an underwater fantasy with Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken
-
PREPARE FOR A SERIOUS smackdown beneath the Seven Seas with Dreamworks Animation’s new family-friendly animated feature Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken.
This ’90s-style coming-of-age fable centres on the gangly teenager of the title (Lana Condor) who discovers that she is descended from generations of mythical sea krakens and that her true destiny lies in a fantastic oceanic kingdom. An ancient feud pits krakens against mermaids in an underwater clash of epic proportions, as we learn that appearances are deceptive and mermaids might not be the alluring enchantresses of maritime folklore…
Directed by The Croods’ Kirk DeMicco from an original screenplay by DeMicco and Pam Brady, Ruby Gillman is poised to be parent company Universal Pictures’ third animation sensation, after the box office bonanzas of Dreamworks’ Puss In Boots: The Last Wish and Illumination’s blockbuster The Super Mario Bros Movie.
The Oscar-nominated director took a break from post-production mixing at Skywalker Sound to chat to Red Alert about Ruby Gillman’s vivid visual style and crafting the original krakens versus mermaids concept. He explains that the movie had huge appeal to him and his creative sensibilities as a “The Croods underwater” project, believing that it could interest a broad swathe of moviegoers.

Herbie, the Love Bug
“You let that little car get under your skin, didn’t you?” says Michele Lee to Dean Jones in 1968’s The Love Bug. She could have been talking directly to yours truly, so smitten was I with sentient Volkswagen Beetle Herbie from the second he first pootled into my nascent, Disney-loving consciousness.
