DISNEY’S A CHRISTMAS CAROL, based on the classic Dickens tale, is re-envisioned by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Robert Zemeckis in a groundbreaking 3D motion picture event starring JIM CARREY, GARY OLDMAN, COLIN FIRTH, BOB HOSKINS and ROBIN WRIGHT PENN.

 

DISNEY’S A CHRISTMAS CAROL, a multi-sensory thrill ride re-envisioned by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Robert Zemeckis, captures the fantastical essence of the classic Dickens tale in a groundbreaking 3D motion picture event.
 
Ebenezer Scrooge (JIM CARREY) begins the Christmas holiday with his usual miserly contempt, barking at his faithful clerk (GARY OLDMAN) and his cheery nephew (COLIN FIRTH).  But when the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come take him on an eye-opening journey revealing truths Old Scrooge is reluctant to face, he must open his heart to undo years of ill will before it’s too late.
 
Some movie facts:
·         Jim Carrey tackles several roles, including Ebenezer Scrooge (at various ages old and young) and the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come.
·         The Dickens novella was first published on December 19, 1843, becoming an instant – and enduring -- success.
·         Launched in Los Angeles Memorial Day weekend 2009, DISNEY’S A CHRISTMAS CAROL Train Tour is traveling more than 16,000 miles with stops in 40 cities coast to coast.  Visitors get to see an exclusive 3D sneak peek from “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” inside a 48-foot-wide, 2-story, inflatable 3D theatre, and are treated to a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the making of the movie—with artifacts and character designs housed in real train cars. The whole experience is free. A list of cities is at Disney.com/christmascaroltraintour.
 

I recently received an exclusive clip, which can be found below.

 

In “The Event” actors Jim Carrey and Colin Firth, along with director Robert Zemeckis and producers Steve Starkey and Jack Rapke give you their perspective on bringing Charles Dicken’s tale to the big screen.

 

DISNEY’S A CHRISTMAS CAROL arrives in theatres November 6, 2009.
