Nine years after the successful release of "Finding Nemo,' Ellen DeGeneres, the voice behind Dory, talks about her character's lost family, which is the sequel's storyline. The official trailer for "Finding Dory" is yet to have an official release as of this writing.
Unfortunately for the fans, as reported by Crossmap, the trailer for the upcoming sequel is only available to D23 attendees. However, Disney has yet to release an official trailer of the film to the public.
During the D23 conference, DeGeneres described the storyline for the upcoming Finding Dory, "She's been lost for a long time, and she's just tried to act like everything's fine. And in this film, you see that it's kind of like she's taken a little bit of a - she's paid a toll on it."
DeGeneres revealed that the focus of the sequel will be more about the rehabilitation of the ocean and why people should start protecting it.
In related news, The Independent reported some hints as well as short clips from the film - one of which is a scene where Dory was sharing about her lost family with Marlin. A new set of characters were said to be introduced in the film.
"Finding Dory" is set six months after the original film, but this time, it is Marlin's (Albert Brooks) turn to help the blue tang search for her family.
To make things more interesting, Huffington Post reports that Pixar President Jim Morris confirmed that the Marine Biology Institute of California will play a vital role in the next installment.
Dory's mother will be played by Diane Keaton, while Eugene Levy is said to portray the protagonist's dad. Kaitlin Olson will play the role of Destiny, the whale shark who happens to be Dory's adopted sister.
Many fans are already excited for the official trailer of "Finding Dory," which is starred by Ellen DeGeneres. Nevertheless, the sequel will find its way in theatres on July 17, 2016.
