Kubo and the Two Strings is an
epic action-adventure set in a fantastical Japan from acclaimed
animation studio LAIKA.
Clever, kindhearted Kubo (voiced by Art
Parkinson of "Game of Thrones") ekes out a humble living, telling
stories to the people of his seaside town including Hosato (George
Takei), Akihiro (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa), and Kameyo (Academy Award
nominee Brenda Vaccaro).
But his relatively quiet existence is shattered
when he accidentally summons a spirit from his past which storms down
from the heavens to enforce an age-old vendetta. Now on the run, Kubo
joins forces with Monkey (Academy Award winner Charlize Theron) and
Beetle (Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey), and sets out on a
thrilling quest to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen
father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known.
With the
help of his shamisen - a magical musical instrument - Kubo must battle
gods and monsters, including the vengeful Moon King (Academy Award
nominee Ralph Fiennes) and the evil twin Sisters (Academy Award nominee
Rooney Mara), to unlock the secret of his legacy, reunite his family,
and fulfill his heroic destiny.
