Rio, often promoted as
Rio: The Movie, is a 2011 American
3D computer-animated musical comedy film produced by
Blue Sky Studios and directed by
Carlos Saldanha. The title refers to the
Brazilian city of
Rio de Janeiro,
[4] where the film is set. The film features the voices of
Jesse Eisenberg,
Anne Hathaway,
will.i.am,
Jamie Foxx,
George Lopez,
Tracy Morgan,
Jemaine Clement,

Rodrigo Santoro and
Jake T. Austin.
[5] It tells the story of Blu (Eisenberg), a male
blue macaw
who is taken to Rio de Janeiro to mate with a female. He eventually
falls in love with Jewel (Hathaway), a free-spirited macaw, and together
they have to escape from being smuggled by Nigel (Clement), a cockatoo.
The theme song, "Telling the World" was sung by Taio Cruz.
Saldanha developed his first story concept of
Rio in 1995, in which a penguin is washed up in Rio. However, Saldanha learned of the production of the films
Happy Feet and
Surf's Up, and changed the concept to involve macaws and their environments in Rio. He proposed his idea to
Chris Wedge
in 2006, and the project was set up at Blue Sky. The main voice actors
were approached in 2009. During production, the crew visited Rio de
Janeiro and also consulted with an expert on macaws at the
Bronx Zoo to study their movements.
20th Century Fox
released the film on March 22, 2011 in Brazil, and on April 15, 2011 in
the United States. The film received generally positive reviews from
film critics. Observers praised the visuals, voice acting, and music.
The film was also a box office success, grossing over $484 million
worldwide. The film was nominated for
Academy Award for Best Original Song, but lost to the other nominee, "Man or Muppet" from
The Muppets.
