Sam Neill Joins Snyder's Guardians of Ga'hoole

November 18, 2009


Sam Neill has joined the voice cast of Zack Snyder's Guardians of Ga'hoole, an animated feature film based on the series of children's books by Kathryn Lasky.

The film follows Soren, a young owl enthralled by his father's epic stories of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole, a mythic band of winged warriors who had fought a great battle to save all of owlkind from the evil Pure Ones.

It appears Neill has replaced the previously-announced Hugh Jackman in the film, which is also voiced by Geoffrey Rush, Hugo Weaving, David Wenham, Emily Barclay, Abbie Cornish, Emilie de Ravin, Ryan Kwanten, Jay Laga'aia, Miriam Margolyes, Helen Mirren and Jim Sturgess.

Watchmen is not making back its money. This project sounds weird and his Suckerpunch about a girl trapped in an asylum is dumb too

Snyder's only good film is 300.

Snyder's only good film is 300... NOT!
I thought it was pretty boring... Watchmen was amazing!!! It's the best, most faithful adaptation of any graphic novel or book ever!

I think Watchmen is pretty good, and 300...speechless, just speechlessly good. This one? We'll see.

Zack has done exceptionally well in all his endeavors. I even thought his Dawn of the Dead remake was an improvement on a master work. I'm definitely interested in his latest here.

I loved 300 and thought that Watchmen was pretty good, so I have hope for this one.

Wow, what an all star cast of Australian actors. It's a pity it's not live action with that cast.
