Stephen Curry unveils the trailer for his movie Goat, in which he voices an unexpected character and his wife Ayesha also appears

When Stephen Curry isn’t dropping threes or changing the game on the court, he’s quietly working on something just as bold-this time, in the world of animation. This week, fans got their first full look at GOAT, a movie that’s as visually striking as it is thematically rich.

The animated film, which drops on February 13, 2026, follows Will-a literal goat with a not-so-literal dream: to play Roarball, a brutal, high-octane sport dominated by much bigger animals. Voiced by Stranger Things star Caleb McLaughlin, Will’s story is one of grit, self-belief, and-naturally-basketball.

The trailer, released on X, paints a vivid world built by the same animators behind Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. It’s slick, fast-paced, and full of heart. We see Will facing doubters, outmatched opponents, and the kind of pressure that anyone with a dream knows too well. The message? Being small doesn’t mean thinking small.

Curry Voices a Giraffe-Yes, Really

Here’s the twist: Curry voices Lenny Williamson, a towering giraffe and arguably the tallest character in the film. For a player often defined by his smaller stature, that casting choice feels like a wink to fans.

“I thought it’d be fun to flip the script,”Curry said in an interview with People. But it’s not just a voice cameo-Curry is also a producer on the film, working through his company Unanimous Media to help shape a story that, in many ways, mirrors his own.

Also making her animated debut? Ayesha Curry, who joins the star-studded cast alongside Gabrielle Union, Jennifer Hudson, and Nick Kroll.

A Story That Feels Personal

What sets GOAT apart isn’t just its animation or celebrity voices. It’s the emotional thread running through it. Curry sees a lot of himself in Will: underdog, underestimated, but unwilling to quit.

“I relate to the entire story,” he shared. “You’re looking for an opportunity, and through that, you find confidence. You learn that being different is actually your advantage.”

And that’s what makes GOAT more than just a fun family movie-it’s a story about rising, even when everything seems stacked against you. Whether you’re 5-foot-6 or six-foot-giraffe, Curry makes one thing clear: greatness has nothing to do with size.
