Elemental voice cast: All actors & characters
PixarHere’s your guide to the cast and characters found in Pixar’s newest film Elemental.
Despite the occasionally middling film, Pixar seems to be the strongest animation studio going. Its dominance began with its first try with 1996’s Toy Story, closely followed by Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, Cars, The Incredibles, WALL-E, Up, and many more.
Pixar is known for giving random objects conscious thoughts, such as: What if cars had feelings? What if monsters had feelings? What if feelings had feelings? And now it’s time for the elements themselves to get their own internal conflict, as Pixar’s Elemental hits theaters worldwide.
In our review for the film, we said: “Elemental is a strong film that will definitely have you weeping at certain points. While parts of the movie were a bit cheesy at certain points and the overall message of the film a bit too on the nose, it’s a solid watch for the plot and visually stunning.”
But, before you break out the tissues, check out this guide to the cast and characters for Elemental.
