Get ready to dive deep into DreamWorks’Latest production like Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken will be available for purchase on digital platforms on August 29, and will be released on Blu-ray and DVD on September 26. Lana Condor voiced the main character in a beautiful adventure about a girl who teaches two different cultures to respect each other and learn from each other while trying to prevent war. And if that wasn’t hard enough, Ruby also had to learn more about her new powers, hiding them from her closest friends as a powerful villain lurked in the shadows.

Ruby’s problems started when she entered high school not knowing she was a kraken. She will unexpectedly discover this side of herself when a sudden transformation causes her to destroy the school library. When she confronts her motherToni Collette) on this occasion, she was informed that the Krakens were once engaged in a brutal war against the most evil creatures known to the ocean: Mermaids. Refusing to believe that the past should influence the future, Ruby decides to live life to the fullest, despite the consequences it may have on herself and those around her.

Unfortunately, Ruby will need more than her unrelenting enthusiasm when the time comes to meet Queen Nerissa (Annie Murphy), an evil mermaid who pretended to be one of the protagonist’s classmates in order to carry out her evil plan. After revealing her true identity, Nerissa sets out to retrieve the Trident of the Ocean to rule the ocean with its power, and Ruby must stop her before she changes the fate of the Krakens forever. The film earned a disappointing $42 million at the worldwide box office when it premiered this summer, and while it was an unfortunate event for DreamWorks, the studio is poised to move on with the film next year.
