 Tue Jan 25, 2005 12:19 am NEW �ZATHURA� TRAILER! Jumanji�s sequel in theaters 2005! |
|
I have discovered that the sequel to Jumanji, Zathura, is being made into a movie. While there is no trailer as of yet, I did manage to find some info on the book, a movie synopsis, some screenshots, and the Zathura poster.
| book synopsis wrote: | | On the last page of the Caldecott-winning book Jumanji, young Danny Budwing is seen running after his brother, Walter, with a game tucked under his arm. Now after twenty years, Chris Van Allsburg is ready to reveal what happens when Danny and Walter roll the dice. This time the name of the game is Zathura and the battling Budwing boys are in for the ride of their lives. The first book in seven years by Chris Van Allsburg, Zathura is a dramatic adventure that promises a breathtaking and unforgettable experience. At the story�s end which becomes, miraculously, the beginning, we find that Walter�s feelings for his little brother are greatly altered. Only the mind and hand of Chris Van Allsburg could create this fantastic world where shifts in time and space and perspective take the reader on such an extraordinary journey. |
| movie synopsis wrote: | | Two brothers discover an oblong box in the park, containing Jumanji, which they dismiss as "just some dumb old game." The boys turn their attention away from the game's "jungle adventure" board to discover a second game board inside with an outer-space theme and a colored path leading to the purple planet, Zathura. Mayhem ensues each time one of the boys draws a game card or rolls the dice. Facing meteors and giant robots, the brothers begin to appreciate each other and their sibling rivalry dissolves. |

|
Dax Shepard revealed to Sci-Fi Wire that he has landed a lead role in the upcoming Jumanji follow-up Zathura.
Shepard will play an astronaut in the movie, about a board game that blasts a house and its occupants into space. "I'll be the only adult in it besides Tim Robbins," Shepard said in an interview. It is not yet known, weather or not, Robin Williams will make an appearance in the film.
Shepard added that he landed the role because of his ability to improvise in the audition. "Jon Favreau ... loves improv, so he'll read with you and just throw you curve balls and see what you do with it," he said.
Favreau plans to take advantage of improv when working with the film's cast of children, Shepard said. "I think [a kids' movie] is almost the best opportunity [for improv], because you have these kids who are going to be playing it by the book," he said. "The more you can screw with them, [the more you can] get something organic and real out of them."
