Gold Members can get their hands on tickets to the screening beginning tomorrow, June 11th.

D23 Gold Members who are near Burbank, California next Tuesday will have the opportunity to attend an early fan screening of Pixar’s Elio.

What’s Happening:

  • D23 Gold Members are invited to an early screening of Elio, Pixar’s brand-new adventure about an Earthling boy finding his place in the universe. And, before the film starts, you’ll get a peek behind the scenes with a very special guest!
  • This event includes:
    • One ticket to an advance screening of Disney and Pixar’s Elio
    • A discussion with a special guest
    • An event credential
    • One complimentary popcorn voucher
    • One complimentary drink voucher
    • One Elio Glordon souvenir popcorn bucket, which will be distributed at the end of the event
  • The screening takes place on Tuesday, June 17th, 2025 at 7 p.m. PT at the AMC Burbank 16.
  • Tickets are $25 (+$3 Processing Fee) each, and go on sale Wednesday, June 11th at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET at this link.
  • D23 Gold Members may reserve a ticket for themselves and up to one guest for this event.

Who Could the Very Special Guest Be?

  • If I were a betting man, I’d place my bets on one of the stars of the film swinging by, especially as this screening takes place in Burbank.
  • Child actor Yonas Ascunsion Kibreab provided the voice for Elio, so he’d be a pretty easy get. More impressive of an appearance would be Zoe Saldaña, who voices Elio’s aunt Olga.
  • In addition to her voice role in Elio, she’ll also be reprising her role as Neytiri in Avatar: Fire and Ash this December.
  • Or perhaps the film’s directors Madeline Sharafian and Domee Shi might make an appearance.

About Elio:

  • In the film, young Elio is unexpectedly transported to the Communiverse, a vast intergalactic organization featuring representatives from distant galaxies. Mistaken for the leader of Earth, Elio must forge connections with a variety of quirky alien beings, tackle a significant interstellar crisis, and ultimately uncover his true identity and purpose in the universe.
  • The film stars Yonas Kibreab as Elio, Zoe Saldaña as Aunt Olga, Remy Edgerly as Glordon, Brad Garrett as Lord Grigon, Jameela Jamil as Ambassador Questa and Shirley Henderson as Ooooo.
  • Elio is directed by Madeline Sharafian, Domee Shi, and Adrian Molina, with production overseen by Mary Alice Drumm.
  • Pixar’s Elio arrives in theaters on June 20th, 2025.
