Trailer: 'Underdogs' boots fairy-tale adventure into the sporting age

The English-language version of Juan Jose Campanella's award-winning animated feature is nearing release, with an official trailer that anticipates availability in April. Matthew Morrison of "Glee" and "What to Expect When You're Expecting" voices Jake, a noodly foosball fan who finds himself at the center of a hostile land grab. Pop star and actress Ariana Grande is the fashionable, strong-minded Laura, and "X-Men" star Nicholas Hoult finds a mean streak to become Ace, the town bully who returns as a star athlete to bulldoze happy memories and create a massive stadium in his own honor. Campanella's Argentinian original, "Metegol," took the Goya Award for Best Animated Film, as well as the Silver Condor for Best Sound from the Argentinian Film Critics Association and Best Adapted Screenplay from Argentina's Academy Awards.
