With Missing Link, LAIKA's first Golden Globe paves the way for its future

“We’re effectively a band of anal-retentive mole people who are working at a jerkwater town 950 miles away from Hollywood, specializing in an art form that was declared dead a generation ago,” Travis Knight, the head of the Oregon-based LAIKA and a producer on, tells EW over the phone one January afternoon. “It’s certainly a questionable recipe for success if I’ve ever heard one.” That’s why awards recognition feels like a welcome sight, one that’s been long-awaited for the house of LAIKA.

“Certainly the film-going experience is changing, the theatrical experience is changing. It’s evolving as it always has,” Knight says. “We find that certain kinds of films tend to perform particularly well in the cinema and others maybe not so much in a way that they did in the past. We’ve also seen an explosion in storytelling across different mediums, including streaming, and so the world is hungrier than ever for stories. We’re content, if you will.

Knight confirms there are multiple new films in development, one of which may have already been revealed. What hasn’t changed are what Knight refers to as “humanist stories.” Stories like a young bard’s fantastical encounters with spirits, a talking, monkey, and a warrior beetle, undercut with a boy’s need for family and identity . Stories like a kid, orphaned at infancy, who learns that even underground-dwelling creatures can become your family . With, the story became about connection.
