Jerry Bruckheimer’s second 2010 release through Disney is the live action remake of the classic Fantasia tale THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE. This one opens smack back in the middle of the summer (July 16th), and stars Nicolas Cage, Jay Baruchel and Alfred Molina.
Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina). Balthazar can’t do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It’ll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE.
We haven’t many images from the forthcoming movie, bar the three below, but you can check out the trailer for the movie right here.
