The Bear and the Bow will be the second Disney - Pixar 3D film in 2011
Following six months behind the schedules release of
Cars2 comes The Bear and the Bow. This is the 2nd computer-animated
3-D film being produced by Pixar Animation Studios on behalf of
Disney. It will features the voices of Reese Witherspoon, Billy Connolly, Emma Thompson, and Julie Walters. The current thinking is that it will be scheduled for release around Christmas 2011.
The film is set in a rugged and mythical Scotland and features the impetuous, tangle-haired Merida (Reese Witherspoon). Even though she is a daughter of royalty, she would rather make her mark as an archer.
Following a clash of wills with her mother, Merida makes a reckless choice. This in turn unleashes unintended peril on her father's kingdom and her mother's life.
In the film Merida has to struggle with magic, with the unpredictable forces of nature, as well as a dark ancient curse.
The Bear and the Bow is Pixar's first fairy tale.
