Today Oh My Disney and Entertainment Weekly revealed updates on the new Disney/Pixar film, Coco. Inspired by Latino cultures, Coco tells the story of Miguel(voiced by newcomer Anthony Gonzalez), who longs to be a professional musician, despite his family's ban on music years ago. Miguel finds himself in the colorful Land of the Dead, where he meets trickster Hector(voiced by Gael García Bernal), who helps him on his quest to unlock the history of Miguel's family.

Renée Victor will also be joining the line-up as Miguel's grandmother, Abuelita, pictured above in concept art.

"It was important to us from day one that we had an all-Latino cast," Coco and Toy Story 3 director Lee Unkrich says to Entertainment Weekly. "It focused us, and we ended up with a fantastic mix of people — some from Mexico and some from Los Angeles."

Get excited — Coco comes out in theaters on November 22, 2017.
