Disney and Pixar has recently teased its next animation, The Good Dinosaur, with a new trailerbut they’re also sharing the short film that will be accompanying it onto the big screen. Following in the illustrious footsteps of Presto the Rabbit, Luxo Jr. and most recently, Lava’s lovelorn volcano Uku comes Sanjay in Sanjay’s Super Team. This month’s Empire debuts a new picture showing that super team in action.



Those Hindu superheroes, who young Sanjay encounters in his adventure, are (left to right): Durga, goddess of power and protection, the four-armed Vishnu, and the badass-looking Hanuman. These aren’t the Avengers though, stresses director Sanjay Patel. “I had to be clear that I didn’t want them to be superheroes with six-packs throwing fists and punches everywhere,” Patel tells Empire. “I wanted them to be graceful and androgynous, and that was exciting for the animators.”

Catch Sanjay’s Super Team when The Good Dinosaur hits UK cinemas on November 27.
