Check out the brand-new official trailer for "Migration," the upcoming animated comedy from Illumination, the studio responsible for hits like "Despicable Me," "The Secret Life of Pets," and "Sing."

With voices lent by Kumail Nanjiani and Elizabeth Banks, the movie revolves around Mack Mallard, an endearing yet anxious father of the Mallard family, while Pam stands as the family's daring and quick-witted matriarch.

Written by Emmy Award winner Mike White, (the mind behind "The White Lotus" and the screenwriter of "School of Rock" and "Nacho Libre"), the film follows the Mallard family, an affectionate flock of ducks, on a memorable vacation as they migrate south for the winter. Along their journey, they confront a series of unexpected challenges, resulting in uproarious and heartwarming situations.

Directed by French cartoonist-animator Benjamin Renner, co-director of the Oscar-nominated "Ernest & Celestine," and co-helmed by Guylo Homsy, renowned for his contributions to "Sing" and "Sing 2," "Migration" is scheduled to soar into theaters on December 22nd, arriving just in time to infuse your winter with laughter and warmth. Watch the new trailer, above.

synopsis:
This holiday season, Illumination, creators of the blockbuster Minions, Despicable Me, Sing and The Secret Life of Pets comedies, invites you to take flight into the thrill of the unknown with a funny, feathered family vacation like no other in the action-packed new original comedy, Migration. The Mallard family is in a bit of rut. While dad Mack is content to keep his family safe paddling around their New England pond forever, mom Pam is eager to shake things up and show their kids -- teen son Dax and duckling daughter Gwen -- the whole wide world. After a migrating duck family alights on their pond with thrilling tales of far-flung places, Pam persuades Mack to embark on a family trip, via New York City, to tropical Jamaica. As the Mallards make their way South for the winter, their well-laid plans quickly go awry. The experience will inspire them to expand their horizons, open themselves up to new friends and accomplish more than they ever thought possible, while teaching them more about each other -- and themselves -- than they ever imagined.
