‘Finding Dory’ News & Update: Meet Dory’s Parents! [PHOTOS]

Finding_Dory“Finding Dory,” the sequel to “Finding Nemo” is about the lovable blue fish’s search for her mom and dad. The movie is expected to debut in theaters this June, but Pixar has just released new photos of Dory’s parents and the other new characters.

Dory’s mom, Jenny, is voiced by none other than Diane Keaton, who has an uncanny resemblance to her fish image. “It’s all in the mouth. Pixar gets the mouth right of the actual person playing the animated part. It’s part of their genius,” the actress said per USA Today.  “Besides, in real life, don’t you think of me as a fish? I’m sure you do, a motherly fish.”

Dory’s dad, Charlie, is voiced by Eugene Levy and the two actors have not been part of the first movie. In planning “Finding Dory,” director Andrew Stanton actually had the idea of putting Keaton and Levy together. The new film will center on the reunion of the family.

Screen Crush reports that “Finding Dory” will also be a reunion of sorts of stars from “The Wire” as Idris Elba and Dominic West were cast to do voices for a pair of sea lions.
