Tim Burton’s latest film Big Eyes is set for a December 25 release, meaning more dark Christmas wonder!
Big Eyes is set to star Amy Adams, Christoph Waltz, Danny Huston, Krysten Ritter, Jason Schwartzman and Terence Stamp. It is a biopic of artist Margaret Keane, the painter whose distinctive creations featuring big-eyed children became one of art’s first mass-market success stories in the 1950s. The drama covers Keane’s personal awakening at the onset of the feminist movement, leading to a lawsuit she filed against her husband, Walter, who claimed credit for her works. He lived the high life while she toiled in relative anonymity in the Bay Area.
Big Eyes goes up against the comedy sequel Hot Tub Time Machine 2, Angelina Jolie’s second directorial feature Unbroken, Cameron Crowe’s untitled next project and Rob Marshall’s Into the Woods which stars Burton regular Johnny Depp.
It’ll be an interesting holiday film season.
