A hybrid of live-action and CGI, Disney's THE ONE AND ONLY IVAN not only looks amazing but the viewing may require tissues. In an adaptation of Katherine Applegate’s bestselling book, a circus gorilla named Ivan longs to live in the wild after meeting a baby elephant named Ruby. Bryan Cranston stars as the human who raised Ivan voiced by Sam Rockwell. Angelina Jolie, Helen Mirren and Danny DeVito lend their voices for the other animals.
THE ONE AND ONLY IVAN will exclusively on Disney+ on August 14.
Official Synopsis
An adaptation of the award-winning book about one very special gorilla, Disney’s “The One and Only Ivan” is an unforgettable tale about the beauty of friendship, the power of visualization and the significance of the place one calls home. Ivan is a 400-pound silverback gorilla who shares a communal habitat in a suburban shopping mall with Stella the elephant, Bob the dog, and various other animals. He has few memories of the jungle where he was captured, but when a baby elephant named Ruby arrives, it touches something deep within him. Ruby is recently separated from her family in the wild, which causes him to question his life, where he comes from and where he ultimately wants to be.
