Patricia Arquette Joins Troll: The Rise Of Harry Potter, Jr

J.K. Rowling will appear in the August. 2 premiere of Who Do You Think You Are? It was adapted and brought to the U.S.by LIsa Kudrow (“The Comeback”) and her longtime friend and producing partner Dan Bucatinsky (“Scandal”, “The Comeback”). In fact, Troll is more known for it’s sequel, Troll 2- which is better known as one of the worst films ever created.

The new animated feature, due out in 2017, will revisit the world of wizardry originally created in the 1986 film, in which a wicked troll wizard plots to take over the world.

Plans are underway to lock in the remainder of the voice cast, and Davy noted producers are “already in pre-production”. Expect “Harry Potter Jr.” to be dropped from the title fairly quickly. I don’t feel jealousy or anything like that really, because they’re just different situations. “The characters Harry Potter and Harry Potter, Jr. depicted in Troll are not related to, or inspired by, the book and film characters of J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros”.

The press release adds that the movie “has not been prepared, approved or licensed by any entity that created or produced the J.K Rowling series of Harry Potter books or the Warner Bros. series of Harry Potter motion pictures”.

Almost three decades after its original release, the 1986 cult classic “Troll” is spawning an animated film and television titled – at least until Warner Bros. and J.K. Rowling spring into action – “Troll: The Rise of Harry Potter Jr.”

You know, the kid who’d get everything he wanted from his wizard hating parents that kept poor little Harry in a closet under the staircase?

Arquette won her first Oscar earlier this year for her performance in Richard Linklater’s unique coming-of-age drama Boyhood, which was filmed over the course of 12 years.
