Henry Selick’s 2009 film Coraline is returning to theaters for one-day-only on the road to Halloween, we’ve learned today, courtesy of Fathom Events, Shout! and Hot Topic.
The press release details, “This one-day event, which takes place Tuesday, August 24, will also feature bonus content with never-before-seen animation test footage!”
“From Henry Selick (The Nightmare Before Christmas, James And The Giant Peach) and based on the novella of the same name by author Neil Gaiman (Sandman), Coraline is a wondrous, thrilling, fun and suspenseful adventure.”
“A young girl walks through a secret door in her new home and discovers an alternate version of her life. On the surface, this parallel reality is eerily similar to her real life – only much better. But when this wondrously off-kilter, fantastical adventure turns dangerous and her counterfeit parents try to keep her forever, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness, determination, and bravery to save her family and get back home.”
The voice cast includes Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher, Ian McShane, Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French. Produced by Henry Selick, Claire Jennings, Bill Mechanic and Mary Sandell.
