AMAZING NEW POSTERS FOR ANG LEE'S "LIFE OF PI", "THE HOBBIT AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY" & "JUDE LAW'S, HUGH JACKMAN'S "RISE OF THE GUARDIANS"

OK, my little freaks, we are having a poster day today at HOLLYWOOD SPY. First I have three delightful posters for Ang Lee's LIFE OF PI dramatic adventure which is scheduled for release November 21s. Based on the book by Yann Martel, Academy Award winner Lee’s LIFE OF PI takes place
over three continents, two oceans, many years, and a wide world of imagination.  The enchanting story of LIFE OF PI follows a young man who survives a disaster at sea and is hurtled into an epic journey of adventure and discovery. While marooned on a lifeboat, he forms an amazing and unexpected connection with the ship's only other survivor… a fearsome Bengal tiger. The full story presents a magical adventure story centring on Pi Patel, the precocious son of a zoo keeper. Dwellers in Pondicherry, India, the family decides to move to Canada, hitching a ride on a huge freighter. After a shipwreck, Pi finds himself adrift in the Pacific Ocean on a 26-foot lifeboat with a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a 450-pound Bengal tiger named Richard Parker, all fighting for survival. The cast includes newcomer Suraj Sharma in the
lead role of young Pi Patel, GĂ©rard Depardieu as The Frenchman, Irrfan Khan as the older version of Pi, Rafe Spall as The Writer, Tabu as Pi's mother, Adil Hussain as Pi's father, and Ayush Tandon as Pi in his childhood. Read more about it in HOLLYWOOD SPY's special spotlight.

THE HOBBIT BANNERS
The second bunch of posters are actually delightful new banners for Peter Jackson's long anticipated epic saga THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY which hits cinemas December 14 and the tickets have been just released for pre-order. New banners feature
 Martin Freeman's Bilbo Baggins trying to escape some nasty wolves by climbing a tree, a dinner with the dwarfs lead by Thorin (Richard Armitage) and Gandalf (Ian McKellen), a beautiful council between elven rulers Galadriel (Cate Blanchett) and Elrond (Hugo Weaving)
and Gandalf, and a nocturnal scene in which the dwarves are climbing a mountain along with Kili played by Aidan Turner. Hope you didn't miss HOLLYWOOD SPY's huge spotlight on all the characters.

RISE OF THE GUARDIANS
The third selection of posters comes from this years animated adventure RISE OF THE GUARDIANS, which also opens up in cinemas November 21st. The character posters feature Winter's Jack Frost (Chris Pine), Christmas' North (Alec Baldwin), Easter's
Bunnymund (Hugh Jackman), Tooth Decay's Tooth (Isla Fisher), Insomnia's Sandman, and two of North's little elves. When an evil spirit called Pitch becomes bent upon taking over the world by inspiring fear in the hearts of kids everywhere, a group of our greatest heroes - Santa,
the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, the Sandman and Jack Frost - band together for the first time, determined to stand in Pitch's way. More than a collection of storybook subjects, The Guardians are also a band of superheroes, who possess their own special powers. Now joined in
opposition of a common foe, the Guardians heed the call and combine their powers to defeat Pitch (Jude Law) and protect the world from his campaign of fear! Don't forget to read the whole spotlight on this delightful adventure.
