May 16, 2009 – The Disney/Pixar Film Up Has its World Premiere
“My favorite part of the film is the wonderful montage of just showing a life from early to late, and without words, and I’m really proud of us for doing that sequence.” – Bob Peterson, voice of Dug
On May 16, 2009, the Disney/Pixar film Up had its world premiere at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, California.
