Tony Hale's new kids' movie, Sketch, tells the story of a widowed father and his two kids who summon monsters through their art. Hale believes the film will help children feel seen and remind parents to ease their own pressures. Drawing from personal experience, he recognizes the challenges of parenting over time, reminiscing about playing board games with his daughter. He emphasizes the importance of quality time and understanding that parenting is a continuous learning process, where everyone is growing and evolving together.
"Nothing is cooler than when a kid watches a movie and feels like they're really being seen," Hale says. Sketch, he hopes, will teach kids that they're not alone in the world, despite whatever feelings might be churning inside.
Hale says, "We're all on a learning curve here. No one's got the equation perfect, and we're all a work in progress." This message extends not only to children but also to parents.
Hale reminisces about his quality time with his daughter, noting, "It was always like, I have six hours in this day. How am I going to figure out how to entertain this child?" This sentiment highlights the evolving dynamics of parenthood.
Hale shares a fond memory of board games with his daughter, stating, "When Loy was in high school, her friend Evan made a Guess Who? specifically for her birthday. He put all their friends in place of the Guess Who? characters."
