90 free Sing trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
Sing is the 2016 Illumination film in which a koala theatre owner named Buster Moon tries to save his crumbling theatre with a singing competition, only for a typo on the flyers to promise $100,000 he does not have. It was written and directed by Garth Jennings, packed with 65 pop songs that ate 15% of the budget, and grossed $634 million without ever reaching number one at the US box office — a record it held until Oppenheimer. These 90 questions cover the whole film: the contestants and what animals they are, who voices Rosita, Ash, Johnny, Meena and Gunter, the llama banker and the iguana assistant, the Russian bears and the squid-lit stage, the 'Faith' Golden Globe nomination, the cameo voices from Wes Anderson and Edgar Wright, and the numbers behind its release. Easy questions stick to species and stars; the hard tier asks about working titles, festival screenings and who sang for the young Nana Noodleman. Every answer is cited to a page we checked, with a short explanation so you learn something even when you miss. Play it solo or print it for a family movie night.
