Netflix has shared a first look image at their upcoming animated adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, which is being developed by director Stephen Donnelly (Lost in Oz). The film also has a wonderful voice cast, which includes Olivia Colman, Luke Evans, and Jessie Buckley.
Evans will take on the role of Scrooge, while Colman and Buckley will plays= the Ghost of Christmas Past and Isabel Fezziwig respectively. The movie also stars Jonathan Pryce as Jacob Marley, Johnny Flynn as Bob Cratchit, Fra Fee, Giles Terera, Trevor Dion Nicholas, and James Cosmo.
You all know the story of A Christmas Carol, which has been already adapted several times, but according to the director, this version of the story will be a different experience.
Donnelly said in a statement, “It’s been a fascinating challenge to adapt such a beloved and often-told story and I think this version will give those who know A Christmas Carol all the things they expect but not as they’ve experienced them before. There are more than enough psychedelic, time-traveling and musical surprises to keep those familiar with the story on the edge of their seats.”
It’ll be interesting to see how this turns out.
