The Little Prince will premiere on Netflix this August.
Director Mark Osborne’s film, based on the 1943 novel of the same name, is the first-ever animated feature adaptation of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s iconic masterpiece.
Written by Irena Brignull and Bob Persichetti, this film features voice work by Jeff Bridges, Rachel McAdams, Paul Rudd, Marion Cotillard, James Franco, and Ricky Gervais. At the heart of the beloved story is a young girl and her overbearing mother, who is preparing her for the very grown-up world in which they live – only to be interrupted by her eccentric, kind-hearted neighbour, The Aviator. The Aviator introduces The Little Girl to his new friend The Little Prince, and a world where anything is possible.
The Little Prince will premiere on Friday 5th August in the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and the US.
