What is Elemental?
The film will revolve around the journeys of an unlikely couple, “Ember and Wade, in a city where the inhabitants of fire, water, earth and air live together,” the synopsis reads. “The fiery young woman and the go-with-the-flow man are about to discover something fundamental: how much they really have in common.”
Elemental is directed by Peter Sohn (Partly Cloudy Short), whose childhood in New York serves as inspiration for the film’s story. Screenplay by John Hoberg & Kat Likkel and Brenda Hsueh with story by Sohn, Hoberg & Likkel and Hsueh. The film’s original score was composed and conducted by Thomas Newman. It is produced by Denise Ream (Cars 2), who worked with Sohn on The Good Dinosaur.

Wendi McLendon-Covey (The Goldbergs) as Wade’s tempestuous Air-Ball-loving boss Gale. Catherine O’Hara (Home Alone) as Wade’s funny but tearful mom, Brook.
