Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken is an upcoming American computer-animated coming-of-age fantasy action-comedy film produced by DreamWorks Animation and distributed by Universal Pictures. It is directed by Kirk DeMicco, co-directed by Faryn Pearl, and written by Pam Brady, Brian C. Brown, and Elliott DiGuiseppi. The film features an ensemble voice cast including Lana Condor, Toni Collette, Annie Murphy, Sam Richardson, Liza Koshy, Will Forte, Colman Domingo, Jaboukie Young-White, Blue Chapman, Eduardo Franco, Ramona Young, Echo Kellum, Nicole Byer, and Jane Fonda. In the film, sixteen-year-old Ruby Gillman (Condor) is desperate to fit in at Oceanside High, but when she breaks her mother's (Collette) rule about going on the beach with any would-be friends, Ruby discovers that she is a direct descendant of the warrior Kraken queens and is destined to inherit the throne from her commanding grandmother, the Warrior Queen of the Seven Seas (Fonda).

The film was first pitched to DreamWorks Animation and had been in the works for several years. It was announced in June 2021 as its original title Meet the Gillmans, with casting taking place to play the role, including Condor, Laura Dern, Michael Sheen, and Murphy, and an expected release year of 2022. Paul Tibbitt came on board to direct, with Brady signing on to write the film, and production of the film was expected to start in 2022. The majority of the voice cast members, along with Condor and Murphy's confirmation, were announced in March 2023, along with DeMicco replacing Tibbitt as director. Pearl also joined the project as co-director, and Kelly Cooney Cilella signed on as producer. The film was inspired by John Hughes films, Easy A (2010), Lady Bird (2017) and Booksmart (2019).

Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken will premiere at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 15, 2023, and is scheduled to be theatrically released in the United States on June 30.
