Okay, so I need you to picture an A24 film starring the wonderfully weird Jenny Slate. Got that in your mind? Bam. Welcome to Marcel The Shell With Shoes On, the newest A24 film. The film is set to play in theaters starting June 24, 2022 and stars Jenny Slate and Isabella Rosellini. Marcel is directed by Dean Fleischer Camp.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Marcel is an adorable one-inch-tall shell who ekes out a colorful existence with his grandmother Connie and their pet lint, Alan. Once part of a sprawling community of shells, they now live alone as the sole survivors of a mysterious tragedy. But when a documentary filmmaker discovers them amongst the clutter of his Airbnb, the short film he posts online brings Marcel millions of passionate fans, as well as unprecedented dangers and a new hope at finding his long-lost family. A beloved character gets his big-screen debut in this hilarious and heartwarming story about finding connection in the smallest corners.
