Sing, the animated musical feature directed by Garth Jennings and produced by Illumination Entertainment, arrives on Prime Video on August 1, 2026. Released in 2016, this feature-length film features the original voices of Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson, Taron Egerton, Tori Kelly, Seth MacFarlane and Nick Kroll.
Buster Moon, a koala who lives and breathes live entertainment, sees his theater teetering on the edge of closure. To save the venue, he stages a big singing contest open to every animal in town. The auditions assemble a motley lineup of contestants from all walks of life, each hoping this competition will change their fortunes.
Through these characters, Tous en scène follows several parallel storylines: a mother trying to rekindle her love of music, a young female elephant hampered by her own self-doubt, a gorilla torn between his family and his passion for singing, and a punk teenage girl determined to make her mark.
Produced by Illumination, already behind the Despicable Me and Minions sagas, the film stacks up a series of revivals of major pop and rock hits, while weaving a story about overcoming limits, building self-confidence, and pursuing your dreams. Its success has spawned a sequel, Sing 2.
Sing will charm fans of animated films, musicals, and family-friendly entertainment. With its humor, pace, and a soundtrack packed with international hits, it's for both kids and grown-ups.
