The upcoming Pharrell Williams biopic Piece by Piece has released a new poster showing some of the other guest stars as LEGO minifigures. It has been known that Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, and Snoop Dogg, just to name a few, will be in the movie but the poster also confirms that Daft Punk will be in the movie as well. As you can see on the top left corner, the electronic duo are in their usual outfits including the iconic helmets.

The movie might be our only time seeing them as LEGO minifigures. Daft Punk has been featured a few times on LEGO Ideas but didn’t pass any review stages. It has been rumored that there is a LEGO set for the movie with the set number 10391 but we’ll just have to wait for LEGO to reveal it to see what it is.

There's never been an artist like him. There's never been a movie like this.

A few weeks ago during the Paris Olympics, we reported that Rugby bronze medallist Sammy Sullivan is a huge LEGO fan and there’s a happy update to this story. It looks like LEGO has finally given her a shout out as well as some big surprises which includes a framed LEGO minifigure poster of her as well as the LEGO icons Eiffel Tower (10307) that she has been eyeing. You can just see the joy that Sammy has on her face when she pulls out the items after making a mess. “Whatever your dreams are in life, you can achieve them.”

LEGO has recently released the new LEGO Play App which replaces the LEGO Life App. LEGO Play is more of a rebranded app that has more things to offer such as minigames, a creative canvas, a LEGO avatar creator, and more. It is a separate app than LEGO Life so you’ll have to download the new one and delete the old one since it is no longer supported, however, you can still use your current LEGO Insiders login and any content that was previously created can be migrated over.
