Today Disney-Pixar revealed the cast of the upcoming animated film Luca. The voice cast includes Emma Berman, Maya Rudolph, Marco Barricelli, Jim Gaffigan, Jacob Tremblay, and Jack Dylan Grazer. In addition to the cast announcement, a poster and teaser trailer were released.
Disney and Pixar describe Luca as “a fun and heartwarming story about friendship, stepping out of your comfort zone and two teenage sea monsters who experience a life-changing summer.”
Directing Luca is Academy Award nominee Enrico Casarosa (La Luna) and produced by Andrea Warren (Lava, Cars 3).
The cast and characters include:
- Jacob Tremblay (Room, Wonder) as Luca Paguro, a bright and inventive 13-year-old sea monster with endless curiosity—especially when it comes to the mysterious world above the sea;
- Jack Dylan Grazer (We Are Who We Are, Shazam) voices Alberto Scorfano, an independent, free-spirited teenage sea monster with unbridled enthusiasm for the human world;
- Emma Berman provides the voice of Giulia, an outgoing and charming adventurer who befriends Luca and Alberto;
- Maya Rudolph (Bridesmaids, Saturday Night Live) voices Daniela, Luca’s mother;
- Marco Barricelli voices Massimo, Giulia’s father;
- Jim Gaffigan (The Pale Tourist, Troop Zero) voices Lorenzo, Luca’s father.
Disney and Pixar’s original feature film Luca is a coming-of-age story about one young boy experiencing an unforgettable summer filled with gelato, pasta, and endless scooter rides. Set in a beautiful seaside town on the Italian Riviera, Luca shares these adventures with his newfound best friend, but all the fun is threatened by a deeply-held secret: they are sea monsters from another world just below the water’s surface.
Disney-Pixar will release Luca this summer. I don’t know about you but I’m excited. Thank you, Pixar keep the movies coming.

Mamma, Mimi, Michele, call out any one of those names and I will answer. There are several hats on my shelf. My passions are photography, being outside, movies, tv, pop culture and anything haunted or spooky. People are my other interest, I love meeting new people and socializing. When I lived in Savannah GA I worked as a tour guide both haunted and historical tours. I met people from all over the world, that was the best part of the job. All of this I can write about too, that’s the beauty of being a writer.
