The first footage of Disney’s A Christmas Carol premiered today at Cannes.
Director Robert Zemeckis and stars Jim Carrey and Colin Firth were on-hand to debut the footage for the upcoming 3D motion-capture animated film, based on the classic Christmas tale by Charles Dickens.
Watch the 19-second video clip here below.
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.
A Christmas Carol arrives in conventional and IMAX theaters on November 6, 2009.
