Loud House Movie, The

Story

Lincoln Loud (voiced by Asher Bishop) lives in Royal Wood, USA, with his mother, father and 10 talented sisters, Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lola, Lana, Lisa and Lily. Feeling that he’s always in his sisters’ shadows, Lincoln longs for something that will make him as special as they are.

After discovering his family is the ancestral owner of Loch Loud in Scotland, Lincoln takes over as the rightful Duke of the town. With the help of Castle Loud’s groundskeeper, Angus (voiced by David Tennant), Lincoln improves the village and life for its people.

Meanwhile, Morag (voiced by Michelle Gomez), the quiet-loving and grouchy caretaker, does everything in her power to remove Lincoln and his family from the town, just as her ancestors did to the Louds 400 years ago.
