Robots is a 2005 American animated science fiction comedy film directed by Chris Wedge and written by David Lindsay-Abaire, Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandel. Produced by 20th Century Fox Animation and Blue Sky Studios, it stars the voices of Ewan McGregor, Halle Berry, Greg Kinnear, Mel Brooks, Amanda Bynes, Drew Carey and Robin Williams. The story follows an ambitious inventor robot named Rodney Copperbottom, who seeks to work for his idol Bigweld's company in Robot City, but discovers a plot by its new leader Phineas T. Ratchet and his mother to forcibly upgrade the city's populace and eradicate struggling robots, known as "outmodes".
Development of the film began in 2000, following a failed attempt by Wedge and children's author William Joyce to adapt Joyce's 1993 children's book Santa Calls. They instead decided to create an original story based on robots. The project was approved by executive producer Chris Meledandri in 2001 and production began the next year.
