New Astro Boy Movie Images

After the temporary shutdown in the creation of the Astro Boy Movie due to some financial problems, Imagi has just release new images from their upcoming CG-animated feature, Astro Boy.

The movie also was previewed last month at New York Comic Con, where a short teaser was shown and earned positive praise.

Here are some new pictures from the Astro boy Movie:




Though the graphics is kinda "Jimmy Neutronish", I still think this will be a good movie with it's settings, effects and lighting garnering good reviews.

Voices for Astroboy Movie Announced

Set in futuristic Metro City, Imagi Studios' Astro Boy is about a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist to replace the son he has lost. Unable to fulfill the grieving father's expectations, our hero embarks on a journey in search of acceptance, experiencing betrayal and a netherworld of robot gladiators, before he returns to save Metro City and reconcile with the man who had rejected him.

Due for worldwide theatrical release in 2009, "Astro Boy" will feature the voices of Academy Award®-winning actor Nicolas Cage, Donald Sutherland, Nathan Lane, Bill Nighy and Eugene Levy with Freddie Highmore in the title role. David Bowers is directing ASTRO BOY from a screenplay written by Timothy Harris, with Maryann Garger producing.

As mentioned on the previous post, Highmore will voice over Astroboy for the Lead Role.
