Us Again is a 2021 American animated short film directed and written by Zach Parrish and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It follows Art, a grumpy old man, and Dot, his energetic wife, in a vibrant city of dance. The two enjoy themselves in a rainstorm that makes them young until it disappears and reverts them back to old age. Parrish conceived Us Again after noticing that he was growing older and took inspiration from his grandparents.
Its score, composed by Pinar Toprak, was written before storyboarding and animation, unlike the typical filmmaking process. For dance reference, Disney hired choreographers Keone and Mari Madrid. Us Again was released on March 5, 2021, preceding theatrical showings of Raya and the Last Dragon. The short has received positive reviews from critics.
