A young boy’s search for his father leads him to a whole new world.
“This isn’t about the father. This is about the son.” Those are the words that proceed from the mouth of a strange-looking prisoner. It is all the introduction we need to the young protagonist in Disney’s upcoming science fantasy adventure
When a famous collector (Colin Farrell) disappears while on a secret mission, his highly-intelligent 12-year-old son named Artemis Fowl (Ferdia Shaw) decides to go out and find him.
Even though his dad is believed to be behind some of the world’s biggest robberies, Artemis knows that there is far more to him than anyone knows.
Artemis’ quest opens his eyes to a world where the most magical of creatures exist (not all of them good), and forging new alliances, he goes into a battle that echoes into our world.
After the massive success of the Harry Potter franchise, it will take a lot to impress fans but Disney hasn’t ever shied away from taking big risks.
Artemis Fowl is directed by Kenneth Branagh and is based on the first and second books in the series of the same name. It co-stars Nonso Anozie, Tamara Smart, and Judi Dench.
The trailer boasts impressive CGI, dazzling special effects, and another potential fan-favorite character for fantasy lovers.
