About DreamWorks Animation's Trolls Band
Together
This holiday season, get ready for an action-packed, all-star,
rainbow-colored family reunion like no other as Anna Kendrick and Justin
Timberlake return for the new chapter in DreamWorks
Animation's blockbuster musical franchise: Trolls Band
Together.
After two films of true friendship and relentless flirting,
Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch
(Justin Timberlake) are now
officially, finally, a couple (#broppy)! As they grow closer, Poppy
discovers that Branch has a secret past. He was once part of her
favorite boyband phenomenon, BroZone, with his four brothers: Floyd
(Golden Globe nominated electropop sensation Troye Sivan), John
Dory (Eric André; Sing 2), Spruce (Grammy winner
Daveed Diggs; Hamilton) and Clay (Grammy winner Kid Cudi; Don't Look
Up). BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the
family, and Branch hasn't seen his brothers since.
But when Branch's bro Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents
by a pair of nefarious pop-star villains—Velvet (Emmy winner
Amy Schumer; Trainwreck) and
Veneer (Grammy winner and Tony nominee Andrew Rannells; The Book of
Mormon)—Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing and emotional
journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd from a fate
even worse than pop-culture obscurity.
Featuring Trolls' signature psychedelic joy-bomb of new
and classic pop hits, Trolls Band Together stars a dazzling
cast of musical superstars and comedic powerhouses as new franchise
characters, including four-time Grammy nominee and Latin Grammy
winner Camila Cabello
(Cinderella) as Viva; Zosia Mamet (The Flight
Attendant) as Crimp; and 12-time Emmy winning drag icon RuPaul
Charles as Miss Maxine.
The returning cast includes Grammy, Emmy and Golden Globe
nominee Zooey Deschanel as Bridget;
Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Gristle,
the Icona Pop duo Aino Jawo and
Caroline Hjelt as Satin and
Chenille, Grammy winner Anderson .Paak as Prince D, comedian
Ron Funches as Cooper, SAG nominee
Kunal Nayyar as Guy Diamond and Emmy winning Saturday Night
Live legend Kenan Thompson as
Tiny Diamond.
Trolls Band Together is steered by returning
director Walt Dohrn and producer
Gina Shay, and is co-directed by
Tim Heitz (head of story, Trolls
World Tour). DreamWorks Animation's Trolls films—2016's
Trolls and 2020's Trolls World Tour—have sung and
danced their way to record-breaking success, earning an
