In Your Dreams Trailer Drops: Simu Liu and Cristin Milioti Lead Netflix’s Wild New Fantasy — Watch Now

Netflix drops the first trailer for In Your Dreams, an animated romp starring Simu Liu and Cristin Milioti that hurls siblings Stevie and Elliot into a delirious dreamscape. The film hits Netflix on November 14, 2025.

Netflix just dropped a trailer for its animated movie 'In Your Dreams,' and it looks like a sugar rush of dream logic, sibling chaos, and a stuffed giraffe with way too much attitude. The movie hits Netflix on November 14, 2025.

So what is this thing?

It is an animated comedy adventure about two siblings, Stevie and Elliot, who stumble on a magical book that lets them dive straight into their own dreams. From there, it is a full-on tour through the bizarre corners of their subconscious while they search for the Sandman, who might be able to fix their biggest wish.

"In Your Dreams is a comedy adventure that follows Stevie and her brother Elliot as they journey into the absurd landscape of their own dreams. If the siblings can withstand a snarky stuffed giraffe, zombie breakfast foods, and the queen of nightmares, the Sandman will grant them their ultimate dream come true...the perfect family."

Trailer snapshot

The trailer sets up the basics: find book, jump into dreams, survive the weirdness, locate the Sandman. The dreamscapes swing from goofy (zombie breakfast foods) to gnarly (queen of nightmares), and there is a very vocal giraffe who seems deeply committed to being unhelpful. It is bright, fast, and a little unhinged in a good way.

Who is behind it

• Directors and writers: Alex Woo and Erik Benson (they are handling both the script and the directing)
• Voice cast: Simu Liu, Cristin Milioti, Craig Robinson, Jolie Hoang-Rappaport, Elias Janssen, Omid Djalili, Gia Carides, SungWon Cho, Zachary Noah Piser
• Composer: John Debney, whose resume swings from 'Hocus Pocus' and 'The Princess Diaries' to an Oscar nomination for 'The Passion of the Christ', plus recent work on 'Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1' and 'The Garfield Movie'

Release date

'In Your Dreams' streams on Netflix starting November 14, 2025.

Bottom line

File this under: high-concept family adventure with a lot of visual swing and some surprisingly sharp edges. If the movie sticks the landing on heart and humor, it could be a fun, weird ride.
