Since
ancient times, stories of epic battles and mystical legends have been
passed through the generations across the rugged and mysterious
Highlands of Scotland. In “Brave,” a new tale joins the lore when the
courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) confronts tradition,
destiny and the fiercest of beasts.
Merida
is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (voice of
Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson). Determined
to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred
to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of
Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and
cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida’s actions
inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns
to an eccentric old Witch (voice
of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The
ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in
order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.
Directed
by Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman, and produced by Katherine Sarafian,
“Brave” is a grand adventure full of heart, memorable characters and
the signature Pixar humor enjoyed by audiences of all ages. The film
takes aim at theaters on June 22, 2012, and will be presented in Disney
Digital 3D™ in select theaters.
