Here's the First 'Finding Dory' Poster
Pixar fans will have to wait a while longer for the release of "Finding Nemo" sequel "Finding Dory," but they can whet their appetites with the flick's very first poster.
Titular star Ellen DeGeneres revealed the one-sheet on her Twitter page on Monday, where she also teased the release of the film's first trailer, which is set to drop sometime on Tuesday. But the main attraction for now is the poster, and while it's a simple image, it speaks volumes.

The poster prominently features the tagline, "She just kept swimming...," a nod to Dory's famous favorite tune from "Nemo." It's both a clever callback, and also indicative of the action to come in "Dory," which finds our heroine searching for her own family, keeping swimming in the face of uncertainty. The image is finished off by Dory's tail fin disappearing out of frame, proving that this forgetful fish hasn't lost her fuzzy memory (she's clearly forgotten that she's supposed to pose for her own poster). Classic Dory.
"Finding Dory" also features the voices of Albert Brooks (reprising his role as Marlin), Diane Keaton, Eugene Levy, Ty Burrell, Idris Elba, and Dominic West. It's due to swim into theaters on June 17, 2016.
