Dreamworks Animation showed off new footage of its upcoming “Trolls” film at San Diego Comic-Con Thursday morning in front of a packed house full of fans wearing hats made to look like Troll hair.
The film, based on the famous Troll dolls, sees the peppy and upbeat Trolls face off against their ideological enemies, the depressed and cynical Bergens — who can only find happiness by eating Trolls.
The 16 minutes that were shown in Hall H were excerpted from the beginning of the second act of the film, “Trolls” co-director Walt Dohrn said. The Bergens have attacked the Trolls, and heroine Poppy (Anna Kendrick) takes it on herself to strike back.
