The world of the dead will soon come alive in The Book of Life!
Have you seen The Book of Life trailer yet? The trailer for the upcoming 3-D animated film from Mexican director Jorge Gutierrez and producer Guillermo del Toro was released last week and promises to take audiences through an afterlife filled with vibrant and colorful characters. This movie is beautiful and so unique! Watch The Book of Life trailer below.
THE BOOK OF LIFE, a vibrant fantasy-adventure, tells the legend of Manolo, a conflicted hero and dreamer who sets off on an epic quest through magical, mythical and wondrous worlds in order to rescue his one true love, the beautiful Maria, and defend his village. It’s the tale of a young man who is torn between fulfilling the expectations of his family and following his heart.
The Book of Life shows each of us we can celebrate the past while continuing to look forward to the future.
The film comes with a star-studded voice cast including Channing Tatum, Zoe Saldana, Diego Luna, Ron Perlman, Ice Cube, Danny Trejo, and more.
The Book of Life is rated PG, and hits theaters on October 17. I’m really looking forward to it!

October 11, 2014 at 1:28 PMZoe Saldana is one of my favorite actresses. I bet even her voice acting is sure to make the animated character very much “her.”
