J·J·J·J·Abrams will participate in the production of the "Dr. Seuss " trilogy |
1905. As a well-known American children's book writer, Dr. Seuss is a well-known American children's book writer. A few days ago, some media reported that three animated films based on Dr. Seuss’s children’s books are under preparation, and director J.J. Abrams and producer Hannah Minghella will become Producers of these three cartoons.
It is understood that these three films were adapted from Dr. Seuss’s "Cat Wearing a High Hat", "First Thing and Second Thing" and "Oh, Where Are You Going!" ". In this regard, Alison Ebert, Executive Vice President of Warner Animation Department, said: “Dr. Seuss created a world. For us, it is far more important to show this world than to tell a separate story. This is also the first time for us. With the idea of shooting a series of films, not a story. We will make a whole set of films to explore what will happen in this world. We will extend this theme and study deeper characters and stories." In this way of shooting, foreign media commented that Warner is working to build a "Dr. Seuss universe."
"Cat Wearing a High Hat" |
Dr. Seuss, whose real name is Theodor Seuss Geisel, is one of the most popular children's literature writers and illustrators of the 20th century. His magic is that he can tell an unexpected story with just over 200 words. Since the publication of the first book in 1937, a total of 48 picture books have been created, with sales of 200 million copies, translations in 20 languages, and a winning army on the children’s best-selling list in the United States over the years. The world's most important children's literature awards have never missed the name of Dr. Seuss, including the Catic Award, the highest honor for American fairy tale books, and the Pulitzer Prize for Special Contributions. He is the representative of the advanced productivity of contemporary American children's books and is regarded as a historical landmark in the United States. The entire process of contemporary children's reading promotion is related to him, including the traditions of graded reading, bedtime stories and parent-child reading, all of which originated from him.
Currently, there are no specific shooting arrangements for these three films and Warner's subsequent film plans.
