They've tried fantasy adventure once before and all didn't go as planned, so why not tray again? Director Terry Gilliam will reteam with Heath Ledger for The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
Ledger boards the production with Christopher Plummer, Tom Waits, Lily Cole, Andrew Garfield and Verne Troyer in tow.
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is a modern day fantasy adventure that centers on Dr. Paranassus, played by Plummer, who has the gift of guiding the imaginations of others. Traveling to various destinations, Paranasses allows audience members the chance to transcend reality by passing through a magical mirror.
Gilliam wrote the script with writing partner Charles McKeown.
Just in case you can't remember the last time Ledger got involved with Gilliam, I will give you a single hint: Matt Damon. (answer below)
Ledger, Damon and Gilliam created The Brothers Grimm together, a film that gave many their first look at Lena Headey.
Production on The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus will begin this December in London and then will make its way over to Vancouver.
