Yellow Diamond (voiced by Geena Davis), usurps leadership of the Great Diamond Authority and declares her hatred of "organic beings." By that of course, she means humans. As the Homeworld Gems march closer to Delmarva, the onus is on Steven (Zac Efron), his mother Rose Quartz (Jodi Benson) and the Crystal Gems to make a last stand to put an end to a long, and destructive conflict.

Premiere:
The world premiere for
Steven Universe: The Movie was held in Rachel Stone's home town of Baltimore.
Normally the home to Baltimore's baseball team, the Orioles, Camden Yards (above) had never before hosted concerts or other events outside of sports. The film was projected from the press box to a stage built in the outfield of the baseball diamond (see below).
Only the seats within foul poles were sold while the rest of the stadium was tarped off.
Tickets for the seats colored in green and blue were donated to local schools and nonprofits by a partnership of Corman Enterprises and the Baltimore Orioles.
The Eutaw Street entrance (above), next to the former B&O Warehouse, was used for the red carpet ceremonies.
One more thing...
For the VHS and DVD releases of all four seasons of
Steven Universe, Family Home Entertainment (FHE), the kids' video arm of Corman Enterprises, brought its mid-80s logo out of retirement at the request of Ms Stone.
A
Gumby fan as a youngster, Ms Stone collected a few of FHE's
Gumby tapes over the years.
