Meet the Cast of Trolls Band Together
The Trolls are back in Trolls Band Together for another adventure that will get everyone from the old movies back once again.
The new Trolls movie, Trolls Band Together, is filled with reunions and action-packed, all-star, rainbow-colored adventures. The holiday film stars Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake as they return for the new chapter in DreamWorks Animation’s blockbuster musical franchise: Trolls Band Together.
The third installment of the Trolls franchise follows Poppy (Anna Kendrick) and Branch (Timberlake) who are officially a couple. As they grow closer, Poppy finds out that Branch has a secret he’s been keeping, he was once part of the boy band BroZone with his four brothers. BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the family, and Branch hasn’t seen his brothers since. But when Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents by a pair of pop-star villains— Velvet (Emmy-winner Amy Schumer) and Veneer (Grammy-winner and Tony nominee Andrew Rannells)— Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing and emotional journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd from a fate even worse than pop-culture obscurity.

The film features a star-studded cast of returning favorites and exciting newcomers. Here are some of the main voice actors.
Justin Timberlake as Branch
Singer, songwriter and producer Justin Timberlake returns to voice Branch, and unlike the others, he is the only troll in the village who doesn’t sing, dance, or hug. In addition to voicing Branch, he has served as executive music producer on all of the franchise’s movies. Back in 2020, Timberlake said during an Apple Music takeover that he hopes they make "seven Trolls movies because it literally is the gift that keeps on giving."
Timberlake is a 10-time Grammy Award-winning artist. He started his career as a Mouseketeer on The All-New Mickey Mouse Club, but he rose to fame in the boy band group *NSYNC before venturing out on a solo career. *NSYNC actually reunited for a new song in Trolls Band Together, for the single “Better Place,” and it’s the boy band’s first song together in 20 years. Timberlake has also worked as an actor in films like The Social Network, Friends with Benefits, and Shrek the Third.
Anna Kendrick as Poppy
Actress Anna Kendrick is reprising her role as Poppy, an upbeat responsible pink troll who also appeared in both 2016’s Trolls and 2020’s Trolls World Tour. Her boyfriend is Branch.

She has also starred in films such as A Simple Favor, Up in the Air, and the Twilight franchise.
