Pixarhas surprise revealed a brand new animated movie that seemingly isn’t part of any existing franchises, and it’s about a girl who somehow exchanges brains with a beaver.

It’s always a big deal when Pixar announces something completely out of the blue, and boy oh boy did Hoppers come way out of left field. We’re not really sure what to expect out of this one, but Deadline reports that it continues the studio’s tradition of treating its subjects and topics with measured sensitivity. After all, this is the studio that made everyone in the world ugly cry with a movie about a man that makes his house fly by tying helium balloons to it.
