Peacock Exclusively Streams DreamWorks’ “The Wild Robot” Beginning January 24 [VIDEO]

From DreamWorks Animation comes an adaptation of Peter Brown’s award-winning, #1 New York Times bestseller, THE WILD ROBOT. The epic adventure stars Academy Award® winner Lupita Nyong’o (Us, the Black Panther franchise) as Roz, a robot that is shipwrecked on an uninhabited island and must adapt to the harsh surroundings. Gradually Roz starts building relationships with the animals on the island, including a clever fox voiced by Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian), and becomes the adoptive parent of an orphaned gosling named Brightbill voiced by Kit Connor (Ready Player One, Heartstopper). THE WILD ROBOT is a powerful story about self-discovery, a thrilling examination of the bridge between technology and nature, and a moving exploration of what it means to be alive and connected to all living things.
