Carey Mulligan, Mahershala Ali, Jacob Tremblay, Awkwafina, Angela Bassett, Jake Johnson, Charlie Day, Jermaine Clement, Maya Erskine and Amandla Stenberg have been cast in LAIKA’s next film ‘WILDWOOD’.
Wildwood is a 2023 upcoming film by Lionsgate Films and Laika Animation. It will be released on April 16, 2023.
Wildwood is a 2011 children's fantasy novel written by Colin Meloy and illustrated by Carson Ellis, his wife. Meloy is the lead singer and songwriter for the folk-rock band The Decemberists. Ellis created album cover art for her husband’s band and provided more than 80 illustrations for Wildwood. Her artwork employs a dark but whimsical tone and has been compared to Edward Gorey.
The plot involves a young girl’s attempts to save her baby brother Mac after a murder of crows airlifts him into the mysterious Impassable Wilderness. The heroine named Prue is joined by her classmate, Curtis. As the two navigate the realm of the Wood, they encounter talking animals, mystics who speak to plants, and an evil witch who wants to kill Mac to further her scheme to conquer the Wood. They get caught up in an epic struggle, and learn of their connection to a magical parallel world while confronting adult authorities who are often cowardly or dishonest. The natural beauty and local color of Portland, Oregon features prominently in the book.

Checked out of our hotel in Cascade Locks Oregon and drove to Northwest Portland Oregon USA. I wanted to try the Salt and Straw Ice cream.
Northwest Portland had vintage shops and restaurants. Looked like a charming neighborhood. This was a short stop because we wanted to get to Seattle Washington.
Victorian buildings.
More of what the town looks like.
I really liked this mural.

We went to Cathedral park which lies near Northwest Portland. Had to get some walking in before we drove to Seattle. I will post pictures of Cathedral Park on another post. Last picture was taken as we drove over (Cathedral Bridge) St. Johns Bridge.
