However, Rio is a 3D computer-animated film. Directed by Carlos Saldanha, the movie is set in Rio de Janeiro. Under development for years, Rio is considered Brazilian-born Saldanha's dream project. Saldanha reported that the film would be more musical than his comedic Ice Age movies.

Rio revolves around Blu, a rare macaw who thinks he is the last of his kind and cannot fly. When Blu discovers there's another - and that she's a she - he leaves the comforts of his cage in small town Minnesota and heads to Rio. Unexpectedly thrown together, they embark on an adventure of a lifetime, where they learn about friendship, love, courage, and being open to life's many wonders.
