They discuss the silly, unlikely pitch for &quot;Penguin Avatar&quot; that actually got the green light; centering an angry Asian young woman at the heart of this adventure (and why this movie arrives amidst an incredible moment for animated Asian movie heroines); and all the fun world-building that goes into crafting a story set in the animal kingdom. Also: The Good, The Bad, and The WTF of making Hoppers. This episode is sponsored by  Chinese Republicans,&amp;nbsp;a new play from Roundabout Theatre Company.
