‘Piece By Piece’ Trailer: Pharrell Williams’ Animated Lego Biopic Features Gwen Stefani, Snoop Dogg, Jay-Z, And More

PIECE BY PIECE

Although the film opens in just a couple of days, Focus Features has decided its a good time to drop another trailer for Piece by Piece, a biopic on the life and career of superstar producer Pharrell Williams. Why does anybody need such a thing? I’m not sure that anybody does, but at least this won’t be a typical awards season musical biopic, as Williams and his celebrity pals have been rendered entirely in Lego form.

The film is directed by Morgan Neville, who has brought unique stylistic approaches to documentaries 20 Feet from Stardom, Best of Enemies, and Won’t You Be My Neighbor? We’ve seen animated Lego movies before, but never in this way to tell a real-life story. It should prove interesting. Leave it to Pharrell to do something as unconventional as this.

Pharrell’s buddies Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, and Snoop Dogg also feature in the film.

Synopsis: PIECE BY PIECE is a unique cinematic experience that invites audiences on a vibrant journey through the life of cultural icon Pharrell Williams. Told through the lens of LEGO® animation, turn up the volume on your imagination and witness the evolution of one of music’s most innovative minds.

Piece by Piece opens in theaters October 11th.
