Paul McCartney Kids' Book Is Becoming Animated Movie
Paul McCartney announced that his 2005 children’s book High in the Clouds is being adapted into an animated movie produced by Netflix and Gaumont.
Oscar nominee Timothy Reckart will direct from a script by Jon Croker, while McCartney himself will provide original songs and music.
“To the creatures of the woodland, the land of Animalia sounds like a dream – a tropical island where all the animals live in harmony,” the book’s synopsis reads. “They are overshadowed by a much more evil community: the polluted Megatropolis, whose dirty skyscrapers block the horizon. And then one day, Wirral the Squirrel's woodland is destroyed by developers and he is thrown into the nightmare world of Megatropolis.
