My thanks to the people who submitted this title to us wayyyy back when it appeared to be nothing more than an unsubstantiated rumor; two-plus years ago, who knew Brendan Fraser was mounting a comeback for 2008? Before The Mummy 3 was announced, Fraser and director Iain Softley (K-PAX, The Skeleton Key) were attached to this adaptation of Cornelia Funke’s best-seller, which could be a hit on par with Bridge to Terabithia or The Spiderwick Chronicles. But I say don’t hold your breath for Inkspell or Inkdeath just yet; this is one of the last big-budget projects New Line greenlighted before they were restructured/absorbed by Warner Brothers, so I think Fraser and co. win over audiences worldwide in order for any sequels to arise.
