Take A Trip With THE BOXTROLLS In New Featurette

With just 2 weeks until THE BOXTROLLS hits theaters, Focus Features has 2 new chances for you to get the know Winnie, Eggs and the whole crew.

First up, go behind the scenes in this featurette to see how the talented voice actors at LAIKA gave the Boxtrolls a language of their own in the film. With their guttural grunts and groans, they may not sound smart, but tons of clever thinking went into creating the Boxtrolls’ unique speech.

Meet Winnie in a new clip from the film “Winnie Takes Charge”.

A family event movie from the creators of “Coraline” and “ParaNorman” that introduces audiences to a new breed of family – The Boxtrolls, a community of quirky, mischievous creatures who have lovingly raised an orphaned human boy named Eggs (voiced by Isaac Hempstead-Wright) in the amazing cavernous home they’ve built beneath the streets of Cheesebridge.

When the town’s villain, Archibald Snatcher (Academy Award winner Ben Kingsley), comes up with a plot to get rid of the Boxtrolls, Eggs decides to venture above ground, “into the light,” where he meets and teams up with fabulously feisty Winnifred (Elle Fanning). Together, they devise a daring plan to save Eggs’ family.

The huge voicecast includes Ben Kingsley, Isaac Hempstead Wright, Elle Fanning, Jared Harris, Toni Collette, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Richard Ayoade, and Tracy Morgan.

From directors Anthony Staachi and Graham Annable and based on the novel Here Be Monsters by Alan Snow, THE BOXTROLLS will be packing theaters September 26.
