They say music is a universal language, and it connects the most unlikely duo in Netflix’s upcoming Vivo.
Lin-Manuel Miranda voices the titular rainforest animal, who is best friends with the music-loving human Andrés (Juan de Marcos). When a love from Andrés’s past resurfaces (Gloria Estefan), it’s up to Vivo and new friend Gabi (Ynairaly Simo) to use the universal languages of music and love to bring them together.
The film is directed by Kurt DeMicco, co-directed by Brandon Jeffords, and written by Miranda’s In the Heights writing partner Quiara Alegria Hudes. Vivo costars Zoe Saldaña, Michael Rooker, Brian Tyree Henry, Nicole Byer, and more.
