1905 film news Gilmour del Toro's "Pinocchio", which has been in preparation for more than ten years, has finally determined the film's dubbing lineup. Like all Del Toro's films, this stop motion animation also has a brilliant star team. Cate Blanchett, Tilda Swinton, Christopher Waltz, Ivan McGregor and others will all come to the crew to make their voices for the film.
In addition, the title character of the film, Pinocchio's dubbing work will be handed over to the young actor Gregorian Mann. In terms of supporting roles, David Bradley, Finn Woolfard, John Tetoro, Tim Blake Nelson, and Bern Geman will all appear in the film. More than ten years ago, director Gilmo del Toro began to prepare this stop-motion animation film. According to Gilmo del Toro's usual dark film style, his "Pinocchio" is still a thriller A fairy tale of colors, Pinocchio’s adventure is actually an illusion, the Blue Fairy is the ghost of a dead girl, and the adventure story will also make people frightening. It seems that this idea completely subverts the original fairy tale, and the style is similar to "Pan's Labyrinth". From the conception to the style, this movie should have no market resistance.
But the problem is that director Gilmour Del Toro plans to make a stop motion animation. The so-called stop motion animation is to use clay dolls and puppets to shoot. When shooting, every action pose of the doll will be placed. The photographer will shoot frame by frame. It is difficult to say that this style of animation film is definitely not a market. In the mainstream, there is a great risk of box office recycling. A few years ago, Wes Anderson's stop-motion animation "The Great Fox Papa" has been a big success at the box office, for $46 million, and it has also received two Oscar nominations. But the production cost of the film is as high as 46 million US dollars, and the amount of loss can be imagined.
Therefore, "Pinocchio" had previously been unsuccessful. Currently, the copyright of the film has been taken by Netflix. For Gilmour del Toro, this is an excellent opportunity. After all, Netflix does not need to control the style and classification of movies like mainstream studios. Moreover, Netflix, which is not bad for money, will provide the director with greater creative freedom to some extent.
