The official synopsis of the film reads, "When Joe and Fran are brought together to prepare for the inaugural launch of this revolutionary rocket, there are immediate sparks, but neither is particularly adept at romance. Life becomes more complicated when three aliens—tiny, unruly and adorable—take refuge in Joe’s home. Dunk, Welly and Shirm are on the interplanetary run from a zealous-yet-inept officer of the law named Zandro. The aliens determine that Fran’s rocket could provide their means of getting back home to safety."

Additionally, the trio of runaway aliens, Dunk, Welly and Shirm, will be voiced by Rob Brydon, Diane Morgan and Jamie Demetriou. Ted Lasso star Brett Goldstein has joined the cast as Officer Zandro, while Allison Janney and Lamorne Morris have been confirmed for supporting roles.

Directed by Eric Guillon, Claire Dodgson and Jonathan Del Val, the project is backed by Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri. Joy Poirel, Richard Curtis and David Distenfeld are attached as executive producers.
