Starfy & Company

Starfy & Company is an upcoming American animated musical film and is scheduled to be theatrically released in the United States on November 18, 2022.

Plot
On 2nd Street in San Francisco, specifically somewhere near the headquarters of book publisher Chronicle Books, an orphaned starfish named Starfy is left abandoned after his friends are adopted by passersby. Wandering the streets by himself in search of someone to adopt him, Starfy meets a pair of laid-back sisters known as Clare and Starline who assist the starfish in stealing vegan hot dogs from a vendor named Vandal Savage. Clare and Starline then flee the scene without sharing their bounty with Starfy. Starfy follows Clare and Starline all throughout the streets of San Francisco until they eventually arrive at one of the boats in Fisherman's Wharf, where Clare and Starline share their meal with their fellow siblings: Onion, Jerry, Chris, Waluigi Jr., Mario Jr., and Emily. Starfy sneaks inside and is discovered by the kids. After a moment of confusion, he is received with a warm welcome. The boat's owner, Waluigi (the father of his eight kids who is usually seen with Annie the Toad, Retro the Shy Guy, and Yobert the Yoshi), is indebted to Darx, a nefarious juvenile-aged loan sharking supervillain accompanied by his witch girlfriend Cazi and the Dark Koopa Duo known as Ben and Len. Darx gives Waluigi an ultimatum of repaying the money he had borrowed within three days under the threat of imminent violence.

Waluigi and his kids, now including Starfy, as well as Annie, Retro, and Yobert hit the streets the next morning to carry out items they should buy so that Waluigi may pawn the purchased items for money. Through a theatrical ruse, the kids manage to stop a luxurious limousine owned by a wealthy family. The attempt to pillage the limousine fails and Starfy finds himself in the embrace of the family daughter Jelly, who adopts Starfy to assuage the loneliness brought about by the absence of her vacationing parents. Starfy makes himself at home in Jelly's house, much to the disgust of Tutu, the family's pompous and pampered superhero ballerina companion. Clare, Starline, and the others manage to steal Starfy from Jelly's household and return him to the boat. Waluigi, Annie, Retro, and Yobert recognize from Starfy's new badge that he had been adopted by a wealthy family and desperately decide to hold Starfy for ransom. Their anonymously written ransom note reaches Jelly, who sets out to get Starfy back at the pier.

Jelly meets with Waluigi, Annie, Retro, and Yobert who are shocked that they had been dealing with a little girl. Bothered by their conscience after seeing Jelly distraught over losing Starfy, Waluigi, Annie, Retro, and Yobert give Starfy back freely. Darx, whom Waluigi had informed of the deal beforehand and was watching from the shadows, drives by and kidnaps Jelly, intending to ransom her and declaring Waluigi's debt paid. Clare and Starline rally Starfy, Waluigi Jr., Onion, Emily, Mario Jr., Jerry, Chris, and Tutu to rescue Jelly from Darx, but the ten friends are confronted by Darx, Cazi, and the Dark Koopa Duo after they free her. Waluigi, Annie, Retro, and Yobert save the group with his scooter and Cazi ends up ditching Darx and the Dark Koopa Duo by joining the group. A chase then ensues throughout the streets and into the Muni Metro subway tunnels. Starfy, Clare, and Starline attempt a rescue and struggle with Ben and Len, who fall off the car and are electrocuted on the third rail of the subway. Darx is vanquished when his car drives straight into the path of an oncoming Muni train. Later, Jelly celebrates her birthday with the ten friends, Cazi (who is now living with Jelly), Waluigi, Annie, Retro, Yobert, and the family butler Orvus, who receives a phone call from Jelly's parents saying that they will be returning from Paris, France the next day. Starfy opts to stay with Jelly and Cazi, but he promises to remain in contact with Clare, Starline, and their siblings.
