What happens

The Sea Beast is a 2022 American animated fantasy adventure comedy film directed by Chris Williams, who co-wrote the screenplay with Nell Benjamin and produced with Jed Schlanger. The film stars the voices of Karl Urban, Zaris-Angel Hator, Jared Harris, and Marianne Jean-Baptiste with supporting roles by Kathy Burke, Jim Carter, Doon Mackichan, and Dan Stevens. It tells the story of a sea-monster hunter and a young orphan girl who joins his crew on their search for an elusive beast known as the Red Bluster. The film began a limited theatrical release on June 24, 2022, before debuting on Netflix on July 8. It received critical acclaim and became one of the most-successful Netflix original animated films, with 165 million hours viewed over its first five months of release. The film earned several nominations, including Best Animated Feature at the 95th Academy Awards, but lost to Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, another Netflix animated film. A sequel is in development, with Williams returning as director. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
