Inside of his book, adventurous Harold (Zachary Levi) can make anything come to life simply by drawing it.

After two films of true friendship and relentless flirting, Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Justin Timberlake) are now officially, finally, a couple (#broppy)! As they grow closer, Poppy discovers that Branch has a secret past. He was once part of her favorite boyband phenomenon, BroZone, with his four brothers: Floyd (Troye Sivan), John Dory (Eric André), Spruce (Daveed Diggs) and Clay (Kid Cudi). BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the family, and Branch hasn’t seen his brothers since.

But when Branch’s bro Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents by a pair of nefarious pop-star villains—Velvet (Amy Schumer) and Veneer (Andrew Rannells)—Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing and emotional journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd from a fate even worse than pop-culture obscurity.

The start of the credits feature a musical performance by BroZone as well as Branch and his other bandmates. At the end of the song, Branch approaches Poppy, goes down on one knee, and asks “Will you…?” Poppy excitedly finishes “…Join the band?! Of course I will!” Poppy grabs Viva and they both get onstage to perform a song with BroZone.
Later, Tiny Diamond is sitting on a couch talking about his recent adventures and personal development. He asks how much the session costs and whether it’s covered by insurance. We see Mr. Dinkles reply in a deep voice “No, I’m out of network.”
As the credits end, we hear Viva say “Oh wow, it’s like sunshine in my earholes.”

From the creators of Shrek comes DreamWorks Animation’s TROLLS, a smart, funny and irreverent comedy about the search for happiness, and just how far some will go to get it. The film transports audiences to a colorful, wondrous world populated by the overly optimistic Trolls, who have a constant dance in their step and a song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have Trolls in their stomachs. After the Bergens invade Troll Village, Poppy (Anna Kendrick), the happiest Troll ever born, and the overly-cautious, curmudgeonly Branch (Justin Timberlake) set off on a journey to rescue her friends. Their mission is full of adventure and mishaps, as this mismatched duo try to tolerate each other long enough to get the job done.
