Vivo is an upcoming American computer-animated musical film produced by Columbia Pictures and Sony Pictures Animation. The film is directed by Kirk DeMicco and co-directed by Brandon Jeffords, from a screenplay by Quiara Alegría Hudes and DeMicco, and a story that was based on the original idea by Peter Barsocchini, with songs written by Lin-Manuel Miranda. The film marks Sony Pictures Animation's first musical film.
Originally pitched to DreamWorks Animation in 2010 by Miranda, the film was cancelled due to a restructuring at the company in 2015; however, it was later revived and fast-tracked by Sony Pictures Animation on December 14, 2016.
