Never Alone

Not Alone is an upcoming American animated romance science fiction comedy film directed by Eric Guillon, Claire Dodgson (in her directorial debut), and Jonathan del Val. Produced by Illumination, the film will star the voices of Timothée Chalamet and Selena Gomez as two clueless romantics making the world's very first-ever plant-powered rocket, only to encounter three tiny aliens stranded on Earth who seek a way a back home while evading an intergalactic officer. Among the supporting cast are Brett Goldstein, Rob Brydon, Jamie Demetriou, Diane Morgan, Allison Janney, and Lamorne Morris. Not Alone was announced at the 2026 Annecy International Animation Film Festival, with the cast and crew attached, and will be Illumination's first original film since Migration (2023), as Chris Meledandri describes this film made by "a homegrown directing team" from Guillon, Dodgson, and Del Val, in an effort to expand into original properties beyond a catalogue of mostly established ones. Not Alone will be theatrically released in the United States on April 16, 2027, by Universal Pictures.
