Disney/Pixar News: New Images from Pixar’s ‘Brave;’ ‘Tangled’ Short to Play Before ‘Beauty and the Beast 3D’

While we await the trailer for Pixar’s next film Brave (which hits later today), check out three new images that have arrived online featuring the film’s lead star, Merida (Kelly Macdonald), a feisty princess who attracts all sorts of trouble to her kingdom when she breaks an ancient custom. Featured in the images below are King Fergus (Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (Emma Thompson) with Princess Merida and three hilariously-looking red-afro’d triplets, Princes Harry, Hubert and Hamish (we bet these three will be the film’s scene-stealers). The other image features Lord MacGuffin (Kevin McKidd), Lord Macintosh (Craig Ferguson) and Lord Dingwall (Robbie Coltrane). With such a great cast, we eagerly anticipate this first trailer. You? Brave hits theaters on June 22nd.
