The cast is assembled and everyone is on hand while Principal Photography starts on TinTin.
Paramount Pictures and Sony Pictures Entertainment have announced the start of principal production in Los Angeles on the 3D Motion Capture Film “The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn,” directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Jamie Bell (“Billy Elliot,” “Defiance”) as Tintin, the intrepid young reporter whose relentless pursuit of a good story thrusts him into a world of high adventure, and Daniel Craig (“Quantum of Solace,” “Defiance”) as the nefarious Red Rackham.
Bell and Craig are joined by an international cast that includes Andy Serkis, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Gad Elmaleh, Toby Jones and Mackenzie Crook.
I am waiting to see just how this is going to pan out. I was never a fan of the series (only vaguely knew it existed), and the cast intrigues me.
I imagine that the movie will be targeted at both the long time fan and those who have never see this character. Hopefully it works out well.
