In a near-future world where sentient robots are part of everyday life, lonely teen Mai forms an unlikely bond with a top-secret robot built for destruction. Their friendship turns into a fight against bullies, rogue bots and a scheming inventor whose plans threaten far more than Mai's already fractured home life. Charlyne Yi voices Mai, while John Krasinski is the robot at her side; Jason Sudeikis and Michael Peña round out a voice cast built around comedy, action and a kid’s-eye view of a hyperconnected city.
