With the new animated version of Fantastic Mr Fox released in the UK on 23rd
October, we thought it would be a good idea to bring together all our Fantastic
Mr Fox activities and add in a few more! So we've got crafts, origami, fox
printables and a collection of great links to give you ideas and
inspiration.
NB Please do not allow children to browse video sharing sites unsupervised
FANTASTIC MR. FOX is visionary director Wes Anderson's first animated
film, utilizing classic handmade stop motion techniques to tell the story of the
best selling children's book by Roald Dahl (author of Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory and James and the Giant Peach). The film features the voices of George
Clooney, Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray, Wally Wolodarsky, Eric
Anderson, Michael Gambon, Willem Dafoe, Owen Wilson, Jarvis Cocker.
Mr and Mrs Fox (Clooney and Streep) live an idyllic home life with their son Ash
(Schwartzman) and visiting young nephew Kristopherson (Eric Anderson). But after
12 years, the bucolic existence proves too much for Mr Fox's wild animal
instincts. Soon he slips back into his old ways as a sneaky chicken thief and in
doing so, endangers not only his beloved family, but the whole animal community.
Trapped underground and with not enough food to go around, the animals band
together to fight against the evil Farmers - Boggis, Bunce and Bean - who are
determined to capture the audacious, fantastic Mr Fox at any cost.
