Ea ea, animación a lo Guillermo del Toro ;-) Based on the Mexican Dia de Muertos holiday, the pair’s new animated adventure tells the story of a pair of friends, Manolo, voiced by Diego Luna, and town hero Joaquin (Channing Tatum), who both vie for the affections of the beautiful Maria (Zoë Saldana). For Manolo, alas, the path of true love has a venomous magical snake on it, and he’s sent spinning across three netherworlds in the hope of returning to reclaim his love. As The Book Of Life’s producer, del Toros skills were brought to bear reworking the storyline. He expanded the canvas, hanging its central love story around an epic quest, magical beasties and three characters whose destinies are yet to be decided. “When I came on board the story was very, very different,” he says. “We worked together in reshaping the story to give them a real journey, so they could travel through three magical lands in a very classic arc.”
