You know Pixar movies got Soul. The studio's upcoming animated adventure will tackle metaphysics with Pixar's trademark wit, a jazz soundtrack and the voices of Daveed Diggs, Questlove, Phylicia Rashad, Jamie Foxx and Tina Fey.

The story follows a music teacher who has a brush with death and encounters the source of souls. Alongside that all-star cast there'll also be new music from musician Jon Batiste and an original score from Oscar winners Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
