Walt Disney Pictures gets moviegoers into the groove for laughter, fun, and fantasy with its exciting new animated adventure, "The Emperor's New Groove." Based on an original story, this outrageous comedy takes audiences on a wild and wacky roller-coaster ride full of unexpected twists and turns with its distinctive flavor, stylish animation, and upbeat new songs featuring lyrics and music by Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter Sting and music by David Hartley. Adding to the fun and personality of the film's colorful characters are the superbly cast vocal talents of David Spade, John Goodman, Eartha Kitt and Patrick Warburton.
Set in a mythical mountain kingdom, the film follows the misadventures of an arrogant, egocentric young Emperor named Kuzco, who is transformed into a llama by his power-hungry advisor - the devious diva Yzma. Stranded in a jungle, Kuzco's only chance to get back home and reclaim the high life rests with a good-hearted peasant named Pacha. Kuzco's "perfect world" becomes a perfect mess as this most unlikely duo must deal with hair-raising dangers, wild comic predicaments and - most horrifying of all - each other as they race to return Kuzco to the throne before Yzma (aided by her muscle-bound manservant, Kronk) tracks them down and finishes him off. Ultimately, Kuzco's budding friendship with Pacha teaches the royal pain to see his world in a different way.
