A few short months ago we shared the Official Trailer for “The Call Of The Wild”, a 20th Century Studios production that opens today in theaters near you. Click the highlighted text to see that post and then please enjoy the theatrical poster, premise and casting.
The Premise:
A domesticated St. Bernard/Scotch Collie dog named Buck is stolen from his Santa Clara, California home and sold to freight haulers in Yukon. Crossing paths with a man named John Thornton, the two embark on an adventure where Buck finds his true place in the world.
The Cast:
Harrison Ford as John Thornton
Dan Stevens as Hal
Omar Sy as Perrault
Karen Gillan as Mercedes
Bradley Whitford as Judge Miller
Colin Woodell as Charles
Cara Gee as Françoise
Scott MacDonald as Dawson
Actor and stunt coordinator Terry Notary stood-in for the CGI creation of Buck, whose model was scanned after an adopted dog.
Piercing Ken Thoughts: As I’ve already pointed out, while I am interested in eventually seeing this film, there is no way that I am going to be able to do so in the theaters. Nowadays I am focusing on the superhero and Science-Fiction films that I discuss in greater detail over on PiercingMetal but I sure would like to see this classic story at some point. I’m a big fan of Harrison Ford as well but who isn’t right? What do you readers think? Will you be bringing the younger generation in your world to see this one? I know a lot of kids are off from school this week and it might be a fun thing to do together. I also wonder if your children have read this classic or not. Chime in down below and I will see you the next time around.
