Hands up everyone who’s been waiting to see Jon Hamm and Bobby Moynihan swap places. Keep your hands up if you’ve always secretly fantasized it would happen in a movie where one of them is playing a beaver. Congratulations, you special people: Pixar’s Hoppers is literally the movie you’ve been dreaming of.

Moynihan will voice King George, a beaver in this movie about a science experiment that sees a beaver and human swap brains, and then explore what it means for both in the aftermath. Hamm will co-star in the movie, although his character didn’t show up in the teaser clip shown to accompany the announcement of the project at D23 Expo 2024.

(Instead, audiences saw two scientists explaining to a young man that they wanted to put his brain inside a beaver… followed by the beaver running around the screen.)

Hoppers will be released in summer 2026, according to Pixar.
