TIMBERLAKE: I’m sure, growing up, it’s easy to go through some sort of body dysmorphia thing, and trolls are probably very disarming. KENDRICK: I had a confusing relationship with my Barbies, but I love trolls. Not to speak ill of things like Barbies, but I think they disarm especially young females.
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE: They become disarming. It’s hard to say what draws kids to them, but I think it’s like pug dogs. They said, “No, but she has glitter freckles,” so I was like, “Okay, that’s fine.” And I had the pencil toppers, which made it seem like homework was fun, even when homework wasn’t fun.
#GET BACK UP AGAIN FROM TROLLS MOVIE#
My first question to them, after they finished pitching me the movie was, “Does Poppy have a diamond belly button?,” because the jeweled belly button trolls are the best trolls. Question: Did either of you ever have trolls?ĪNNA KENDRICK: I had trolls, growing up. Following the preview presentation, Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake participated in a Q&A to talk about whether they had their own troll collection, the process of putting together the music, working in the recording studio together, narrowing down the songs, and the biggest challenges of it all. The 15 minutes of footage we got to see made it clear that the huge variety of troll characters are undeniably cute and the music, made up of already known tracks (including “The Sounds of Silence” by Simon & Garfunkel, “Clint Eastwood” by Gorillaz and “True Colors” by Cyndi Lauper) and original tunes (including the already released and highly catchy “Can’t Stop the Feeling”), will definitely make you want the soundtrack. So, when some of happy pink troll Poppy’s (Anna Kendrick) friends are captured, she turns to Branch (Justin Timberlake, who is also the executive music producer on the film), a grey troll who doesn’t partake in hugs or singing, to help her save the day. With an environment textured out of fuzzy felt and hair that does just about everything, including changing color and shape and growing as needed, the only thing the always happy trolls (who even poop cupcakes) have to worry about are the pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomach.
As someone who had a significant assortment of trolls of varying hair colors when I was a teenager, I was definitely curious about what the world and characters would look and sound like. On June 23 rd, Collider was invited over to the DreamWorks Animation campus for a preview presentation with directors Mike Mitchell and Walt Dohrn, who gave the media a glimpse into the world that they’ve created. Inspired by the toy phenomenon and with its very own mythology, this hair-raising adventure looks to have laughs, tears and a whole lot of great music, as well as a terrific voice cast that includes Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, Russell Brand, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Zooey Deschanel, James Corden, Icona Pop and Gwen Stefani. From the creators of Shrek, the animated feature Trolls (due out in theaters on November 4 th) will take audiences into a colorful and wondrous world populated by the always optimistic trolls, who are not only always smiling and singing, but even have hourly hug sessions with other trolls.
