Migration follows the adventurous journey of the Mallards, a duck family led by dad Mack (voiced by Kumail) and mom Pam (Elizabeth). Despite Mack’s inclination to keep the family safe in their New England pond, Pam yearns to explore the world with their kids, Dax and Gwen. Inspired by migrating ducks, the Mallards embark on a family trip to Jamaica via New York City. However, their plans go awry, leading to unexpected adventures, new friendships, and valuable life lessons.
Kumail joined the film due to its appeal as a family movie in a time when such inclusive films are rare. Working with Illumination’s Chris Meledandri, writer Mike White, and Elizabeth Banks, along with the added bonus of Awkwafina, Keegan Michael-Key, and Danny DeVito in the cast, made the project even more exciting for him.
Elizabeth, drawn to Illumination’s track record of universally enjoyable films, saw Migration as a funny and subversive addition to their repertoire, suitable for both kids and adults.
Beyond the family adventure, the film explores the love story between Mack and Pam, highlighting their opposing life philosophies. According to Kumail, the movie’s essence lies in the couple learning from each other, resulting in a romantic story that explores the rekindling of love.
Elizabeth echoes this sentiment, emphasizing the balance achieved through the Mallards’ adventurous journey and the couple’s reconnection, akin to a tango. She believes the film resonates with many couples, portraying the challenges and joys of familial and romantic relationships.
Migration’s life-affirming message, particularly relevant during the Covid-19 pandemic, resonated with both Elizabeth and Kumail. The film encourages stepping out of comfort zones, embracing adventure, and recognizing the evolving nature of relationships and families. Amidst its heartwarming narrative, the movie is visually stunning and, according to Kumail, a delightful experience for audiences.
