The movie, called Not Alone, was announced at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival. According to studio information distributed to multiplemediaoutlets, Chalamet will play Joe, an introverted rocket mechanic. Gomez will play Fran, an astro-botanist who’s created the first rocket powered by plant-based fuel. Things get complicated when three aliens on the run from the law hide out in Joe’s house, where they plot to return home using Fran’s rocket.
The voice cast also includes Allison Janney, Lamorne Morris and Brett Goldstein. The movie hits theaters in April 2027.

Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater have reportedly ended their relationship, according to People.
The Wicked co-stars have amicably called it quits after nearly three years of dating, according to a source who spoke to Peoplethis week.
ABC News reached out to Grande’s and Slater’s representatives for comment.
Slater and Grande met while working on Wicked, which began filming in December 2022. Grande played Glinda in the film, while Slater played Boq.
The pair were first photographed together at Michelle Yeoh’s Oscar party in March 2023, alongside their Wicked co-star Cynthia Erivo.
Grande and Slater, both of whom were married previously, were spotted together in public a few times, including in October 2023, when Grande attended Spamalot on Broadway to support Slater, who was appearing in the show.
They appeared to make their relationship Instagram official in November 2024, when they each shared the same behind-the-scenes photo of themselves at the Wicked premiere in Sydney, Australia.
When Grande was nominated for best supporting actress at the Critics Choice Awards in 2025 for her turn as Glinda, Slater spoke with ABC’s Good Morning Americaon the carpet about what it was like to see Grande take on the role.
“It’s really moving,” Slater said at the time. “When somebody’s wanted to play a role for so long, something that’s meant so much to her, it’s meant so much to everyone on the cast, and then everybody had to really go for it and earn these roles and deliver every day on set, I feel immensely proud of Ariana, of Cynthia, of [Jonathan Bailey], of every single person.”
Grande is currently on her Eternal Sunshine Tour, which kicked off on June 6, in Oakland, California.
She is expected to make stops across North America in Los Angeles, Austin, New York, Boston, Montreal, and more, before hitting the stage at The O2 in London on Aug. 15 for a multi-show run.
Her upcoming album, petal, will be released July 31.

Sandra Oh is in talks to team up with the filmmakers behind Everything Everywhere All at Once.
The actress is being eyed to star opposite Matt Damon in Universal Pictures’ upcoming, untitled event film from directors Daniels, ABC Audio has learned.
Universal Pictures had no comment when reached by ABC Audio.
Damon replaced Ryan Gosling in the project back in May. Gosling was announced to star in the film in March, although he dropped out of the project in April due to scheduling reasons.
This upcoming event film marks the first directing project for Daniels, the filmmaking duo of Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, since sweeping the 95th Oscars in 2023 for their groundbreaking film Everything Everywhere All at Once. That movie walked away with seven Oscars, including best picture, best actress, best supporting actor, best director and best supporting actress.
While plot details of the upcoming film remain under wraps, production on the project is expected to start in Los Angeles in the summer.
Kwan, Scheinert and Jonathan Wang will produce the movie through their Playgrounds overall deal with Universal Pictures.
The currently untitled film will release in theaters on Nov. 29, 2027.
