Early Man teaser trailer revealed
A teaser trailer has just been released for Early Man, Nick Park’s upcoming first feature since Wallace and Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. Currently filming at Aardman’s big warehouse in Aztec West, the prehistoric adventure’s voice cast is headlined by Eddie Redmayne, Tom Hiddleston and Bristol’s own Maisie Williams. It’s just been announced that Timothy Spall and Richard Ayoade will join the supporting voice cast alongside the previously revealed likes of Johnny Vegas.
Set at dawn of time, Early Man follows Dug the caveman (Redmayne) and his warthog sidekick Hognob as they lead their tribe against dastardly Lord Nooth (Hiddleston).
Introducing the trailer, Park said: “Today we get to meet Dug’s tribe, a loveable bunch of misfits voiced by some exceptional British talent. They’re essentially a group of inept cavemen and women, including Treebor, played by Richard Ayoade, a gentle giant scared of his own shadow; Magma, Treebor’s no-nonsense mother voiced by Selena Griffiths and Mark Williams as Barry, whose best friend is a rock. Chief Bobnar, voiced by the brilliant Timothy Spall, leads the pack as their long-suffering leader and father figure to his tribe of idiotic brutes.”
is needed now More than ever
Early Man is provisionally set for release on January 26, 2018.
