The Croods
The journey begins.
Directed by Kirk DeMicco, Chris Sanders
Produced by DreamWorks Animation
A vibrant, family-centered adventure that balances prehistoric danger with humor and heart, celebrating bonds across generational conflict.
The prehistoric Croods family live in a particularly dangerous moment in time. Patriarch Grug, his mate Ugga, teenage daughter Eep, son Thunk, and feisty Gran gather food by day and huddle together in a cave at night. When a more evolved caveman named Guy arrives on the scene, Grug is distrustful, but it soon becomes apparent that Guy is correct about the impending destruction of their world.
