AceShowbiz - More inside look at the forthcoming "The Fantastic Mr. Fox" has been made available by Fox Searchlight with the outing of the film's featurette. Debuted at Apple, this behind-the-scene video is narrated by Jason Schwartzman, the actor who provides voice to Ash, and highlights on the making of the stop-motion animation.
Featuring also several never-before-seen footage, the featurette first gives out glimpses at the drawing, sculpting and shooting of the adaptation of the Roald Dahl's book with director Wes Anderson seen giving his direction to the filming crew. It then reveals that the recording of the audio took place in the actual locations.
"The Fantastic Mr. Fox" is an animated film from director/producer/writer Wes Anderson and animator Mark Gustafson. It centers its story on the clever fox Mr. Fox who must outwit three mean, dimwitted farmers who try their hardest to hurt Mr. Fox and his family. Among those contributing for the characters' voices are George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Willem Dafoe.
Scheduled to open the 53rd Times BFI London Film Festival on October 14, the movie is set to arrive in theaters across the U.S. on November 13.
