Touchstone to Release Lucasfilm's Animated "Strange Magic"
----------------------------------------------------------
Lucasfilm film announced today that Touchstone Pictures
will release their new animated film, "Strange Magic", on
January 23, 2015.

"Strange Magic" is a madcap fairy tale musical inspired by
"A Midsummer Night's Dream." Popular songs from the past
six decades help tell the tale of a colorful cast of
goblins, elves, fairies and imps, and their hilarious
misadventures sparked by the battle over a powerful potion.
Lucasfilm Animation Singapore and Industrial Light & Magic,
which created the CGI animation for 2011's Academy
Award-winning film "Rango", bring to life the fanciful
forest turned upside down.

With a story by George Lucas, "Strange Magic" is directed
by Gary Rydstrom ("Toy Story Toons: Hawaiian Vacation,"
"Lifted"), produced by Mark S. Miller (associate producer
"Mars Attacks!") and executive produced by George Lucas,
with a screenplay by David Berenbaum ("Elf"), Irene Mecchi
("Brave", "The Lion King") and Rydstrom.

The voice cast includes Alan Cumming, Evan Rachel Wood,
Kristin Chenoweth, Maya Rudolph, Sam Palladio, newcomer
Meredith Anne Bull, Alfred Molina, Elijah Kelley, Bob
Einstein and Peter Stormare.

Well-known music producer Marius de Vries ("Moulin Rouge")
serves as both the musical director and composer.
