From Sony Pictures Animation, the studio that made the recent smash, KPop Demon Hunters, has just dropped its second trailer, new images and 1-sheeter for GOAT, an original action-comedy set in an all-animal world. The story follows Will, a small goat with big dreams who gets a once-in-a-lifetime shot to join the pros and play “roarball” – a high-intensity, co-ed, full-contact sport dominated by the fastest, fiercest animals in the world. Will’s new teammates aren’t thrilled about having a little goat on their roster, but Will is determined to revolutionize the sport and prove once and for all that “smalls can ball!”
In collaboration with the NBA, Sony Pictures Animation will release GOAT theatrically on February 13, 2026, timed for NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles (Feb 13–15).
The film stars Caleb McLaughlin, Gabrielle Union, Stephen Curry, Nicola Coughlan, Nick Kroll, David Harbour, Jenifer Lewis, Aaron Pierre, Patton Oswalt, Andrew Santino, Bobby Lee, Eduardo Franco, Sherry Cola, Jelly Roll, and Jennifer Hudson.
Tyree Dillihay directs, with Adam Rosette co-directing. The film is produced by Michelle Raimo-Kouyate, Curry, Erick Peyton, Adam Rosenberg and Rodney Rothman. Executive producers include Rick Mischel and Fonda Snyder.
Here’s the action-packed, hilarious new trailer:
