From Shanghai to Himalaya with a little Yeti from DreamWorks Animation

As already anticipated, the new film by DreamWorks Animation studios will be titled Abominable, an international co-production feature film whose first trailer you can find below.

This is a Chinese-American collaboration between DreamWorks Animation and Pearl studios, authors of the animations, previously known as Oriental DreamWorks, later acquired entirely by a Chinese group and renamed.

Abominable is written and directed by Jill Culton (author of Monsters & Co. and Boog & Elliot), and co-directed by Todd Wilderman, a digital effects specialist here on his first experience as a director. Produced by Suzanne Buirgy and Dave Polsky, the comedy will take audiences on an epic high-altitude adventure, from the streets of Shanghai to the snowy Himalayan landscapes.

When teenage Yi encounters a young Yeti on the roof of her apartment building in Shanghai, she and her mischievous friends, Jin and Peng, name him "Everest" and embark on an epic quest to reunite the magical creature with his family at the highest point on Earth. But the trio of friends will have to stay one-step ahead of Burnish, a wealthy man intent on capturing a Yeti, and zoologist Dr. Zara to help Everest get home.

Abominable will be released by Universal Pictures worldwide beginning September 27, 2019. In China, the film will be distributed by Pearl.
