>>154334907https://variety.com/2026/film/global/timothee-chalamet-selena-gomez-animated-film-not-alone-1236787110/ Timothée Chalamet and Selena Gomez are teaming up on “Not Alone,” a new alien-themed animated film from Illumination, the studio behind huge franchises like “Despicable Me” and “Super Mario Bros.”In his animation debut, Chalamet will voice Joe, an “introverted rocket mechanic who lives a quiet life alone,” according to the announcement, which was made out of Annecy Animation Festival. Gomez is set to play Fran, a “brilliant astro-botanist who is developing the world’s first-ever plant-fueled rocket.” “When Joe and Fran are brought together to prepare for the inaugural launch of this revolutionary rocket, there are immediate sparks, but neither is particularly adept at romance,” the film’s synopsis reads. “Life becomes more complicated when three aliens — tiny, unruly and adorable — take refuge in Joe’s home. Dunk, Welly and Shirm are on the interplanetary run from a zealous-yet-inept officer of the law named Zandro. The aliens determine that Fran’s rocket could provide their means of getting back home to safety.”“Not Alone” is dated for release on April 16, 2027.

>>154334907https://featurefirst.net/timothee-chalamet-set-to-star-in-next-illumination-film-exclusive/Sources tell us that Timothée will be playing the lead role in what was described to us as a rom-com with a “higher brow” take in the vein of films like Pixar’s Up, possibly signaling that Illumination may want to earn some prestige and pick up some Academy Award wins in the future. The studio thus far has only earned itself one single nomination for Best Animated Feature with 2014’s Despicable Me 2, whilst their peer studios often receive at least one every season or so.

>>154334907Do goyim really watch movies based on what celebrity actor is starring in it? I can't wait for this stupid marketing 'strategy' to die.
Hard to get hyped for illumination but at least it's an original film.>>154335690It's not so much as name recognition as it is the ability to get hundreds of media outlets to put "EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH TIMOTHY CHALAMET ABOUT NOT ALONE" on their front pages.You can keep people talking about films for weeks with star studded interviews, red carpet, behind the scenes etc. You don't get that if you hire Troy Baker. That marketing is valuable and can be worth more than the few million it cost to get the actor.Justin Timberlake being in Trolls and doing a song for it more than paid for itself many times over.
