Marcel the Shell and his tiny orange shoes are back in a big way.
A24 has released the trailer for Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, a feature film based on Jenny Slate and Dean Fleischer-Camp's viral stop-motion shorts of the same name. The shorts follow a one-inch-tall shell named Marcel, voiced by Slate, who introduces viewers to his tiny, adorable life that involves wearing a lentil as a hat and using a raisin as a bean bag chair.
The new family-friendly mockumentary, directed by Fleischer-Camp, follows Marcel (Slate), his grandma Connie (Isabella Rossellini), and their pet lint named Alan. When a filmmaker (Fleischer-Camp) discovers the shells living in his Airbnb, he decides to document Marcel's journey to find his long-lost family. The script was written by Camp, Slate, and Nick Paley, which was based on a story he wrote with Slate, Paley, and Elisabeth Holm. Rosa Salazar, Thomas Mann and Lesley Stahl also star.
