The newest offering from Walt Disney Animation Studios looks pretty weird, but it could also be something wonderful. Director Don Hall, the same man who brought us BIG HERO 6 and RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON, is delivering what appears to be something truly bizarre and a throwback to the pulp science fiction novels of the 1950s, featuring a voice cast that includes Jake Gyllenhaal and Alan Tudyk. Rather than have me try to describe STRANGE WORLD to you, it’s best you see it for yourself.
The original action-adventure journeys deep into an uncharted and treacherous land where fantastical creatures await the legendary Clades, a family of explorers whose differences threaten to topple their latest — and by far — most crucial mission.
Born and raised in Dallas, Mark has been a movie critic since 1994, with reviews featured in print, radio and National TV. In 2001 he started the Entertainment section of the Herorealm website, where he contributed film reviews and celebrity interviews until 2004. After three years of service there, he started Bigfanboy.com, which has become one of the Dallas film community's leading information websites. Bigfanboy hosts several movie screenings in the Texas area, and works closely with film and TV studios and promotional partners to host exciting events and contests. The site also features a variety of rare celebrity and filmmaker interviews, and Bigfanboy.com regularly covers the film festival circuit as well. In addition to Hollywood reporting, Mark has worked for many years as an advertising and sci-fi/comic book artist.
