The Nutcracker (ImageMovers Digital)

On November 26, 2009, Zemeckis had signed on to produce and direct the motion capture animated film adaptation of E.T.A. Hoffmann’s The Nutcracker through ImageMovers Digital for Walt Disney Pictures but was cancelled due to the failure of their films along with Yellow Submarine (2012 remake film), Calling All Robots, and a Roger Rabbit sequel.[1] On July 21, 2016, Universal Pictures revived the adaptation, which may or may not use motion capture, with Zemeckis only set to produce the film and Evan Spiliotopoulos was hired to write the script.[2] There has been no information since.read more
