Directed by Kim Burdon (Stressed Eric) and co-directed by Robert Chandler (The Amazing Maurice), THE CANTERVILLE GHOST is the modern reimagining of Oscar Wilde’s popular literary classic and boasts a winning voice cast of Stephen Fry (The Hobbit films), Hugh Laurie (House), Freddie Highmore (The Good Doctor), Emily Carey (Wonder Woman), David Harewood (The Flash), Meera Syal (Dr. Strange), Miranda Hart (Spy) with Toby Jones (Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny) and Imelda Staunton (Harry Potter films). Poised to entertain kids, families, and animation enthusiasts, THE CANTERVILLE GHOST is a colorful animated movie adventure filled with humor and whimsical characters. The film boasts vibrant storytelling, a strong young female lead character, and important messages about curiosity, courage, friendship, love, and forgiveness.
