Gil Cedillo, representing the 1st Council District, planned to make the announcement at City Hall in downtown Los Angeles Tuesday morning along with Lee Unkrich, the film’s director, and Anthony Gonzelez, who voiced the film’s 12-year-old protagonist.
The film’s producer, Darla K. Anderson, and the National Hispanic Media Coalition were also set to appear. Mariachi Divas was slated to perform “Un Poco Loco” and “Remember Me.”
“Coco,” inspired by Mexico City’s Day of the Dead festival, follows a young musician and his adventures in the “Land of the Dead” to learn about his family history. It became the highest-grossing film of all time in Mexico in November, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The movie also won a Golden Globe for best animated motion picture.
