Laika Animation's THE BOXTROLLS Has a New Trailer

Laika Animation, the team behind such stop-motion animated films as Coraline and Paranorman, has released a fantastic new trailer for The Boxtrolls. The latest trailer gives us our best look yet at the movie and features lots of great new footage. I enjoy Laika's dark and humorous kid friendly films. They have such a unique style. 

The movie is based on Alan Snow’s novel Here Be Monsters, which follows a group of sewer-dwelling Boxtrolls that have raised an orphan boy. It has a great cast of actors that includes Ben Kingsley, Isaac Hempstead-Wright, Elle Fanning, Jared Harris, Toni Collette, Nick Frost, Richard Ayoade, Tracy Morgan, and Simon Pegg

LAIKA’s third film is The Boxtrolls, based on Alan Snow’s bestselling novel Here Be Monsters.   Introducing audiences to a new breed of family – The Boxtrolls, a community of quirky, mischievous creatures who have lovingly raised an orphaned human boy named Eggs (voiced by Isaac Hempstead-Wright) in the amazing cavernous home they’ve built beneath the streets of Cheesebridge. When the town’s villain, Archibald Snatcher (Academy Award® winner Ben Kingsley), comes up with a plot to get rid of the Boxtrolls, Eggs decides to venture above ground, “into the light,” where he meets and teams up with fabulously feisty Winnie (Elle Fanning). Together, these soft-boiled detectives uncover the hidden connections in Eggs’ past and devise a daring plan to save his unique family.

The Boxtrolls comes out on September 26th!
