As per Variety, 'Turning Red' centres around the story of 13-year-old Mei Lee (played by Rosalie Chiang) who sometimes turns into a red panda when she gets too excitable - a quirk Mei has to contend with along with hormones, high school and her slightly overbearing mom Ming (played by Sandra Oh). Paramount+ Sets Cast for Grease Rise Of The Pink Ladies Prequel Series.

Anne-Marie said, "I'm a massive fan of Pixar so it was an honour to be invited to have a role in 'Turning Red.' It's such a special film, I love the 00's setting, it's nostalgic and fun and I love the concept of Mei needing to figure out her journey about growing up in this weird world."
