The film follows the story of a young boy called Kubo

known.
Opening on August 19, 2016, Kubo and the Two Strings
also stars Rooney Mara, Ralph Fiennes, George Takei, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, and Brenda Vaccaro.
An epic action-adventure from acclaimed animation
studio LAIKA. Clever, kindhearted Kubo (voiced by Art Parkinson of “Game of
Thrones”) ekes out a humble living, telling fantastical stories to the people
of his seaside town. But his relatively quiet existence is shattered when he
accidentally summons a mythical spirit from his past which storms down from the
heavens to enforce an age-old vendetta. Now on the run, Kubo joins forces with
Monkey (Academy Award winner Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Academy Award winner
Matthew McConaughey), and sets out on a thrilling quest to save his family and
solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world
has ever known. With the help of his shamisen – a magical musical instrument –
Kubo must battle gods and monsters, including the vengeful Moon King (Academy
Award nominee Ralph Fiennes) and the evil twin Sisters (Academy Award nominee
Rooney Mara), to unlock the secret of his legacy, reunite his family and his
heroic destiny. The all-star cast also includes George Takei, Cary-Hiroyuki
Tagawa, and Brenda Vaccaro.
