Around The World In 80 Days 001

Fabulous adventures, hilarious predicaments, and exhilarating action await an all-star international cast as three unlikely heroes attempt to settle an outrageous wager in Walt Disney Pictures'/Walden Media's new spectacle for the whole family, "Around the World in 80 Days." An eccentric London inventor, Phileas Fogg (Coogan),has come up with the secrets to flight, electricity, and even rollerblades, but the world has dismissed him as a crackpot. Desperate to be taken seriously, Fogg makes an outlandish bet with Lord Kelvin (Broadbent),the head of the Royal Academy of Science: to circumnavigate the globe in no more than 80 days! With his two sidekicks - Passepartout (Chan) and femme fatale Monique (de France) - Fogg is headed on a frantic, heart-pounding round-the-world race that takes our heroes to the world's most exotic places by land, sea, and air. Along the way, our heroes face many adventures and obstacles from an all-star cast including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kathy Bates, Owen and Luke Wilson, and Rob Schneider. Frank Coraci ("The Wedding Singer," "The Waterboy") directs. (Comingsoon.net)
