PanARMENIAN.Net - What if the asteroid that forever changed life on Earth missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct? "The Good Dinosaur" explores that possibility, allowing the prehistoric creatures to coexist with humans. A teaser trailer has arrived, AceShowbiz reports.

The Pixar animation centers on Arlo, a lively 70-foot-tall teenage Apatosaurus with a big heart. After a traumatic event rattles Arlo's tranquil community, he sets out on a quest to restore peace, gaining an unlikely companion along the way-a young human boy named Spot.

Directed by Peter Sohn, "The Good Dinosaur" is supported by voice cast such as Lucas Neff, John Lithgow, Frances McDormand, Bill Hader, and Judy Greer. It was initially set for a 2014 release but shifted to November 25, 2015 in the U.S.

"This is a boy and a dog story, but the roles are reversed," said Pixar chief creative officer John Lasseter at Cannes. "Arlo, the dinosaur, is the boy in the story and Spot is the dog. It's unlike anything we've had before. The level of believability we're striving for in this film is going to be breathtaking."
