Spies in Disguise trailer: Tom Holland turns Will Smith into the 'flyest spy in the world' in Disney's animated film

The second trailer of _Spies in Disguise_ , Will Smith’s forthcoming animated espionage flick, has been dropped. Based on Lucas Martell’s 2009 animated short film Pigeon: Impossible, the film also stars Tom Holland, Ben Mendelsohn, Karen Gillan, Rashida Jones, DJ Khaled, and Masi Oka. Smith plays Lance Sterling, a suave and charming spy, who introduces himself as the “greatest spy in the world”. One day, while climbing down an elevator, Sterling encounters a gawky yet brilliant scientist Walter Beckett (Holland). Beckett tells Sterling that he has invented a system called “biodynamic concealment” that he claims will “change spying forever.” While initially hesitant, Sterling agrees to take part in Beckett’s experiment that turns Sterling into a little blue pigeon. Beckett justifies Sterling’s transformation as “pigeons are everywhere and nobody notices them, and thus it is a perfect form that a spy could take.” Ahead of the trailer’s release, the makers had also unveiled a motion poster.
