UglyDolls is a 2019 computer-animated musical adventure-comedy film directed by Kelly Asbury and written by Alison Peck, from a story by Robert Rodriguez, who also produced. It is based on the plush toys of the same name by David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim, and follows a group of them as they try to find embracement from the real world despite their flaws. The film stars the voices of Kelly Clarkson, Janelle Monáe, Nick Jonas, Pitbull, Blake Shelton, Wanda Sykes, Gabriel Iglesias, Wang Leehom, Emma Roberts, Bebe Rexha, Charli XCX, and Lizzo. UglyDolls was theatrically released in the United States on May 3, 2019 by STX Films, the first animated film produced by the company. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, who called it "well-meaning but derivative," and underperformed at the box office, grossing just $32 million worldwide. It was also the final film directed by Kelly Asbury before his death the following year.
