Battling Boy Taps Academy Award Winner Patrick Osborne To Direct

Osborne won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film this year for Feast. He's also worked on full-length animated features such as Wreck-It Ralph, Tangled, The Polar Express and Big Hero 6.

Unfortunately, Haggard West is dead. Arcopolis is desperate, but when its salvation comes in the form of a twelve-year-old demigod, nobody is more surprised than Battling Boy himself.
