    'Where The Wild Things Are' Poster Arrives, Trailer Is Next

    DateTue, March 17, 2009

    After a long wait, a new movie version of the book "Where The Wild Things Are" is finally a reality.

    First up is a brand new teaser poster for the movie, which will be directed, fittingly, by Spike Jonze.

    "Where The Wild Things Are" is an adaptation of Maurice Sendak's classic children's story. It is the story of Max -- a disobedient little boy sent to bed without his supper. Max creates his own world inhabited by ferocious wild creatures that crown Max as their ruler.

    Max will be played by the aptly-named Max Records. In various ways, the movie also will make use of the talents of Forest Whitaker, Catherine Keener, Mark Ruffalo, James Gandolfini and Catherine O'Hara.

    A full three-minute trailer for the movie is slated to appear before "Monsters vs. Aliens" in two weeks. The trailer will feature music by the band Arcade Fire.

    "Where The Wild Things Are" is scheduled to be released Oct. 16.
