Watch: Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong'o voices 'The Wild Robot'
June 11 (UPI) -- Universal Pictures released the trailer for the Dreamworks Animation film The Wild Robot. The film is in theaters Sept 22.
Academy Award winner Lupita Nyong'o provides the voice of robot Rozzum Unit 7134, or Roz. Rozzum washes ashore after a typhoon and discovers nature, animals and plant life.
Roz's language programs enable her to understand the animals so they speak English in the adaptation of Peter Brown's book. Roz helps a gosling hatch causing the gosling to imprint upon her as his mother.
A fox also befriends Roz and helps her navigate the forest. However, the robots eventually return to collect Roz and take her away for repairs.
Pedro Pascal, Bill Nighy, Kit Connor, Stephanie Hsu, Mark Hamill, Matt Berry and Ving Rhames also provide voices.
Dreamworks veteran Chris Sanders wrote and directed. Sanders' credits include How to Train Your Dragon and The Croods. Sanders also created Disney's Lilo & Stitch.
