The Wild Robot is a 2024 American animated science fiction film produced by DreamWorks Animation and directed by Chris Sanders. Lupita Nyong'o voices Roz, a robot unit that washes ashore on an uninhabited island after a shipping accident. Programmed to complete tasks, Roz accidentally destroys a goose nest, leaving one surviving egg that hatches and imprints on her.

Roz must learn to raise the gosling, whom she names Brightbill, while adapting to the island's hostile wildlife — eventually earning the trust of the animals by demonstrating that her programming can evolve beyond her original purpose. Chris Sanders, who had previously directed Lilo & Stitch and How to Train Your Dragon, brought his exceptional ability to craft emotionally devastating parent-child stories to The Wild Robot, creating one of the most moving animated films in years. The animation style blended impressionistic, painterly backgrounds with more traditional CG character animation.

The Wild Robot earned over $300 million worldwide and received widespread acclaim as one of 2024's best films and a return to form for DreamWorks Animation.
