Cars (movie)
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
Cars will be the seventh Pixar film and is scheduled for release in June 2006. The movie's 2001 working title was Route 66, but in 2002, the title was changed to prevent people from thinking it was related to the 1960 television show with the same name.
Soon after the trailer's release in late 2004, the movie's release date was changed to June 9, 2006, so it could receive a summer release and so the DVD would be sold just in time for the holidays of 2006. Directed by John Lasseter (Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Toy Story 2), the film will feature the voices of Owen Wilson, Bonnie Hunt, Paul Newman, Cheech Marin, John Ratzenberger, Larry the Cable Guy, Richard Petty, and Darrell Waltrip.
The story involves aspiring-champion racecar Lightning McQueen, who is on the fast track to success, fame and everything he has ever hoped for - until he takes an unexpected detour on dusty Route 66. His have-it-all-now attitude is thrown into a tailspin when a small-town community, Radiator Springs, that time forgot, shows McQueen what he has been missing in his high-octane life.
