A new, more party-orientated trailer has been released for Disney Pixar’s upcoming Monsters Inc. prequel Monsters University. The film will reveal how Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) and James P. “Sulley” Sullivan (John Goodman) first became friends. Here’s the official plot synopsis, followed by the new trailer:
“Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski was a little monster, he has dreamed of becoming a Scarer—and he knows better than anyone that the best scarers come from Monsters University (MU). But during his first semester at MU, Mike’s plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley”, a natural-born Scarer. The pair’s out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program. To make matters worse, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.“
Monsters University is directed by Dan Scanlon (Cars) and sees Billy Crystal and John Goodman joined in the voice cast by the retuning Steve Buscemi and Frank Oz, alongside the likes of Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Recreation), Helen Mirren (Hitchcock), Alfred Molina (Spider-Man 2), John Krasinski (The Office), Charlie Day (Pacific Rim) and Nathan Fillion (Castle).
Monsters University is set for a North American release on June 21st and is due to arrive in the UK on July 12th.
