Kit Connor on Brightbill and Roz’s heartfelt journey in The Wild Robot: "Their evolving connection not only brings warmth to the story but also emphasizes the power of empathy"

 

'The Wild Robot' centres on ROZZUM unit 7134 also known as Roz, a shipwrecked robot voiced by Lupita Nyong’o, as she navigates the challenges of an uninhabited island. Along the way, Roz adapts to her new surroundings, forming unexpected bonds with the island’s wildlife, including a cunning fox, a clever possum, a wise goose, and a charming gosling named Brightbill, voiced by Kit Connor. Brightbill becomes central to Roz's transformation, helping her discover kindness and love as their mother-son relationship evolves. Brightbill's influence brings warmth to Roz's life and also helps them both navigate and overcome the island’s challenges.

 

Kit Connor reflects on the journey of his character in The Wild Robot, stating, “Brightbill is on a journey of self-discovery,” Connor further highlights the character's challenges, noting the profound personal growth and acceptance his character experiences and elaborates, “At the start of the film, Roz is an unfeeling robot. Brightbill teaches her about kindness and love, and in turn, their mother-son relationship continues to grow stronger as the story progresses. Their evolving connection not only brings warmth to the story but also emphasizes the power of empathy and understanding in overcoming challenges. And that love and kindness that Roz learns eventually helps them both succeed. Throughout the film, we see him growing more confident and learning to love the things that make him different.”

 

The Wild Robot is a touching exploration of how unexpected friendships can transform lives. With its enchanting story and heartwarming messages, this film is poised to resonate deeply with audiences of all ages.

 

The Wild Robot is all set to release in English and Hindi, in theatres on 18th October 2024.
