Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile a film by directors Will Speck and Josh Gordon starring Javier Bardem, Constance Wu, Winslow Fegley, and Shawn Mendes as the voice. A Very down-and-out performer tries to find a gimmick to add to his shows. He trains a little crocodile to sing and perform a show with him but after weeks of training Lyle has stage fright and in a deal, Hector loses his home.

He abandons Lyle and takes off leaving him to fend for himself as the years go by he grows big. Not until a family moves into the house with a young teenage boy. The kid has a hard time fitting in and is scared of everything. Things are about to change for them both as he finds Lyle living in the attic forever changing each other’s lives.

Just as the family is hiding this big secret Hector returns to see if Lyle is ready for a second chance at fame. Just Hector is not doing this in Lyles’s best interest. Lyle is now faced with a lot of new drama and heartbreak as well as Josh. Everything is falling apart for Lyle but Hector with remorse asks for Josh’s help. Everything is falling apart for Lyle but Hector with remorse asks for Josh’s help to save Lyle it’s Josh who saves Lyle by standing up to the face of fear.
