Turning Red is a 2022 American animated fantasy comedy film directed by Domee Shi. Set in Toronto, Ontario, in 2002, the film follows Meilin "Mei" Lee (Rosalie Chiang), a 13-year-old Chinese-Canadian student who transforms into a giant red panda when she experiences any strong emotion, due to a hereditary curse. Turning Red also stars the voices of Sandra Oh, Ava Morse, Hyein Park, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Orion Lee, Wai Ching Ho, Tristan Allerick Chen, and James Hong.
Turning Red debuted in London on February 21, 2022, and was scheduled to be theatrically released on March 11. However, the film was shifted to a direct-to-streaming release on Disney+ due to the COVID-19 pandemic, although it was still released in theaters in countries without the streaming service. Produced on a budget of $175million, Turning Red grossed $20.1million.[1] On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 95% based on 289 reviews.[2]
Turning Red garnered awards and nominations in various categories. It received nominations for Best Animated Film from multiple award organizations, including the Academy Awards, the Annie Awards, the British Academy Film Awards, the Critics' Choice Movie Awards, and the Golden Globe Awards. The film won the same category at the Boston Society of Film Critics Awards, the Florida Film Critics Circle Awards, and the Toronto Film Critics Association Awards.
