Tintin: Opening in Theaters Far from You

摘要

By the time director Steven Spielberg walks the red carpet on Dec. 11 for the New York premiere of his animated movie The Adventures of Tintin, the film about a boy reporter in search of sunken treasure will already have sold well over $200 million in tickets-all far from the U.S. Tintin, featuring Jamie Bell and Daniel Craig, is based on the graphic novels by Belgian author and illustrator Georges Remi, better known as Herge. The film opened first in Europe in late October, then, three weeks later, in Asia. When U.S. audiences get their first peek at Tintin and his fox terrier Snowy on Dec. 21, the film will already have played in more than 50 countries, including France, Germany, China, Japan, and even tiny Estonia.
