Elemental is set to release in theaters on June 16, 2023, but a recent Copyright record may offer additional details on the Elemental vocal cast. We stress that it may reveal more details because this was filed in December, is a “Preregistration” filing record, and is not confirmed by Pixar.
UPDATED March 28, 2023: Additional actors (that were listed below) have been confirmed by Pixar. Check out our updated post listing the updated news.
Our ears were first attuned to a new character named Lutz when Collider reported about Denise Ream’s presentation at the Disney CCPX panel on December 2, 2022. Collider noted –
We also got to see a game of airball, which Ream herself described as “basketball meets skydiving.” One of the players is Lutz, who needs a lot of cheering on after feeling discouraged at a match. This prompts Wade Ripple to start a wave of cheer at the stadium – but since most fans are water-based, they are able to conjure up a literal wave.

Following the Collider article, Pixar Post Forum user Plantthe24 noticed several character names filed under the Copyright website (Bernie, Brook, Cinder, Clod, Fern, Gale, and Lutz). This enticed us to look further, and we found another Copyright entry with additional character names and actors listed.
So, again, take the list with a grain of salt, but the names are listed below. There are some notable inclusions like Catherine O’Hara or even Ronnie del Carmen (who departed Pixar in 2020 to direct a feature at Netflix).
