Hugh Grant stars in his first animated role as the luxuriantly bearded Pirate Captain, a boundlessly enthusiastic, if somewhat less than successful, terror of the High Seas. The Captain has one dream, to beat his bitter rivals to the much coveted Pirate of the Year Award. It’s a quest that takes our heroes from the shores of the exotic Blood Island to the foggy streets of Victorian London.
