RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN Cast Rounding Out...

Merrick here...

Ciaran Hinds (HBO's ROME and Michael Mann's MIAMI VICE movie) and Alexander Ludwig (THE SEEKER) have joined the cast of Disney's RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN. So says THIS ARTICLE in Hollywood Reporter.

Our dude AnonyMouse says the film is no considered a "remake" by Disney. Rather, it's seen as an extension of the the existing films (ESCAPE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN & RETURN FROM WITCH MOUNTAIN)...as well as a "re-imagining".

This iteration is about a Las Vegas cab driver who ends up helping two human-looking-but-alien kids get to their spaceship so they can convince their people not to clobber Earth.

The film also stars Dwayne Johnson (aka "The Rock") and Anna Sophia Robb (BRIDGE TO TERABITHIA & JUMPER - presumably she's the girl alien kid). I believe they're still looking to cast the boy alien kid.

It's being directed by Andy Fickman (SHE'S THE MAN, THE GAME PLAN) for release next year.
