2 Vaders and 2 Kirks voicing Quest

[Buzz Bumble]

I hope everyone had a happy and safe holiday time. Only 125 new messages, so I haven't missed much.

I'm still stuck with little Internet access. I was hoping Apple would release the new iMacs at the MacWorld Expo this week, but no such luck.

I found this news item at ComingSoon.net. Not only are the voices in this animated movie being done by two "Darth Vaders" and two "Captain Kirks", but there's also Mark Hamill and Samuel L. Jackson in there too.

2 Captain Kirks & 2 Darth Vaders Voicing Quest
Quantum Quest, the independently financed 3-D animated film being made in conjunction with NASA, has assembled its voice cast, which will include a pair of Captain Kirks and a pair of Darth Vaders, reports Variety.

William Shatner, Chris Pine, James Earl Jones and Hayden Christensen will topline the voice cast of the $10 million film that is being financed by Taiwanese company Digimax.

Samuel L. Jackson, Amanda Peet, Jason Alexander, Sandra Oh, Mark Hamill, Abigail Breslin and Spencer Breslin round out the voice cast. Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong also will lend his voice, marking his bigscreen debut.

Directed by Dan St. Pierre and Harry Kloor, Quantum Quest will premiere first in IMAX and subsequently in conventional theaters in late 2009.

The story centers on Dave (Pine), a photon who lives in the sun and who is drawn into a galactic battle between the Core (Shatner) and the Void (Hamill).

Written by Kloor, the film will take the audience to the outer planets and moons of the solar system.

Quantum Quest interweaves animated sequences rendered by Digimax with actual space imagery captured from seven ongoing space missions.
