Jack The Giant Killer....

I have just finished a long week on the Motion Picture ' Jack The Giant Killer' which is directed by Bryan Singer ( Usual Suspects, X-men).... Because the film is still in production and not due to be released until June 15th 2012, i cannot say too much or even post any pictures from production.
Here is a rundown of what I can say, followed by a picture that has already made it's way online.....

It's a modern day fairy tale in which the long-standing peace between men and giants is threatened, as a young farmer leads an expedition into the giants' kingdom in hopes of rescuing a kidnapped princess. It uses the formula of Jack and the Beanstalk and Jack the Giant Killer, so Fi Fi Fo Fum will be heard...
Nicholas Hoult (X-Men: First Class) is playing Jack, Eleanor Tomlinson (Alice in Wonderland) will play the Princess and potential love interest of Jack. Stanley Tucci (Captain America) is the film's main villain, Roderick.
Bill Nighy (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest) will portray the leader of the giants, Fallon. The giant Fallon will have two heads, with one being Nighy and the other John Kassir.( The Cryptkeeper)
Ian McShane (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) will portray King Brahmwell, who is none too thrilled about a union between his daughter the Princess  Jack. 
Ewan McGregor ( Moulin Rouge) and Eddie Marsan (Sherlock Holmes) play the Kings Guard and lead the Battle against the Giants.
Warwick Davies (Harry Potter) will play a small role of the Leader of an Acting Troupe.

The information here is already online so should not break any rules, and the picture that follows has also been published online and in Print.
