How the Grinch Stole Christmas Reboot Gets a Poster With Kid Grinch
Just what is going on with the upcoming remake of Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas? Illumination Entertainment, the animation masterminds behind such hits as The Lorax, and… what, you didn't like The Lorax? Surprising.
Okay, well, Illumination Entertainment are also the masterminds behind hits like Despicable Me, Sing, and The Secret Life of Pets, and next up they're working on rebooting a Christmas classic with The Grinch. That movie is set for a release during next year's holiday season, to be directed by Pete Candeland and Yarrow Cheney. Benedict Cumberbatch will play the Grinch, because of course he will. And honestly, we can kind of see the resemblance.
And now, we have a poster, showing what appears to be a child Grinch. What does this mean for the plot? Is it actually a prequel? Or something else? We'll have to wait until next year to find out more, but check out the poster below.
