'I'm on board with this idea!': Fans excited after Disney and Pixar's 'Elemental' trailer dropped

'Honestly Elemental is the first Pixar I'm excited for since Toy Story 4, you should do more romance in your films,' said a fan

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Water. Earth. Fire. Air. Sounds much like 'Avatar: The Last Airbender'? Surprisingly it is not. Long ago, after making 'The Good Dinosaur' in 2015, Pixar filmmaker Peter Sohn set out to helm a movie with elements of family and romance weaved into the story. 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' never influenced that vision, despite their shared concept of personifying the four core natural elements.

Still, Pixar and 'Avatar' fans on social media have gravitated towards 'Elemental,' Sohn's new animated movie, ever since the first teaser trailer was released; it revealed a city in which beings made of water, earth, fire, and air all live together. The trailer also showcases elements like water beings taking baths, air people hanging out on the ceiling, and land parents carrying their kids around in clay pots. It ends when the two main characters, Ember and Wade - voiced by Leah Lewis and Mamoudou Athie, respectively - bump into each other amid the chaos.

The official synopsis of the film reads, "Follows Ember and Wade, in a city where fire-, water-, land- and air-residents live together."
