Christmas Day Release For Tim Burton’s ‘Big Eyes’

Tim Burton

The Weinstein Company has revealed that BIG EYES will be released for the 25th December this year.

Like most Burton outings, the film boasts an impressive cast featuring Amy Adams, Christoph Waltz,  Krysten Ritter and Terence Stamp, to name a few.  The film is based on 1950s artist Margaret Keane whose work always featured large-eyed children.  It follows her involvement with the feminist movement and a high profile lawsuit filed against her husband for claiming credit for her work.

It will be a battle for the ratings as BIG EYES will go up against comedy HOT TUB TIME MACHINE 2, an untitled project from Cameron Crowe, UNBROKEN, which will be Angelina Jolie’s directorial debut, and Rob Marshall’s ensemble piece INTO THE WOODS featuring Burton favourite Johnny Depp.

Also from The Weinstein Company will be the eagerly awaited Alan Turing biopic, THE IMITATION GAME, featuring SHERLOCK star Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley.  The film follows Turing’s tragic personal life and his work at Bletchley Park where he eventually cracked the German Enigma code. The film is due to be released 25th November this year.

This looks to be a fantastic Christmas for film, with THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES, THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY – PART 1 and now these fantastic films to look forward to; I can see myself taking up residence in my local cinema.

    Dumb site alert. It’s November 21 for The Imitation Game and not Nov 25
