Nobody expects much from a pig, a toad, a weasel, and a gorilla, but that’s exactly what makes NOBODY such a delightful, fun animated 2D film this 2026. Witness it on the big screen starting February 4.
NOBODY is about the adventure of these four nameless little demons who leave their ordinary lives on Mount Langlang, setting them on a rollercoaster ride journey where they experience danger, discovery, and unexpected growth of themselves.
Here’s why NOBODY captures audiences with its tale:
Four Loveable UnderdogsThe pig, toad, weasel, and gorilla are individually unique yet loveable characters, despite being underdogs. Their distinct personalities, flaws, and quirks bring comedic antics that drive them toward their goals. Although they are neither legendary nor powerful, they are clever, resilient, and their determination makes them both relatable and endearing. Along their journey, these unlikely “heroes” show that being a nobody doesn’t mean you can’t make a difference because sometimes, you are THAT difference.

Animation and Hand-Drawn Style
NOBODY’s 2D animation style, with its lush hand-drawn visuals and watercolor stroke aesthetics, has caught the attention of early critics and viewers of the film, as it blends traditional techniques while presenting the feel of classic Chinese landscape painting, perfect for its waggish and mystical setting. NOBODY pays homage to its cultural roots while giving a playful twist to tales like Journey to the West.

The Heart and Soul
The pig, the toad, the weasel, and the gorilla may seem flawed and often underestimated, yet their dynamic turns everyday mischief into shared purpose, trust, and heartfelt moments, making their journey chaotically entertaining, funny, and touching. What starts as an adventurous chase for recognition becomes a heartfelt exploration of bravery, learned through laughter, failure, and the unwavering companionship of these four.
NOBODY’s heart lies in the laughter that opens space for tenderness, and in how courage and friendship reshapes oneself, while the soul is the belief that bravery and kindness make anyone extraordinary, and that even “nobodies” have stories worth telling.
