The Lego Ninjago Movie

The Lego Ninjago Movie follows a group of six teenagers who protect their island home of Ninjago. By day they deal with the ordinary pressures of school; by night they serve as secret warriors, using their training and an assortment of vehicles against monsters and villains. Their leader is Lloyd, known as the Green Ninja, who faces a personal problem: the warlord threatening the city, Garmadon, is his father. Under the guidance of the wisecracking Master Wu, Lloyd and his friends must defeat Garmadon and learn to set aside their egos and work as a team. The film is animated in the Lego style and draws on the Ninjago line of toys and its associated series, with mech-versus-mech confrontations forming part of the conflict.

Paul Fisher and Charlie Bean directed, from a screenplay by William Wheeler, Jared Stern and Paul Fisher. For both directors, this 2017 release was the first feature in the chronological list of their directing work. The voice cast includes Dave Franco as Lloyd, Justin Theroux as Garmadon, Fred Armisen, Abbi Jacobson, Olivia Munn and Kumail Nanjiani, with 52 credited cast members and 160 credited crew.
