MOVIES: The Sorcerer's Apprentice -- An Epic Comedy-Adventure

The Sorcerer's Apprentice
Walt Disney Studios, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Jon Turteltaub, the creators of the “National Treasure” franchise, bring to the screen “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” -- an innovative and epic comedy adventure about a sorcerer and his hapless apprentice who are swept into the center of an ancient conflict between good and evil. (more below)

In the film, 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.”

The screenplay is by Matt Lopez and Doug Miro & Carlo Bernard from a screen story by Matt Lopez and Larry Konner & Mark Rosenthal.

“The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” also stars Teresa Palmer (“Bedtime Stories”), Monica Bellucci (“The Matrix Reloaded”) and Toby Kebbell (“Prince of Persia”). The executive producers are Todd Garner, Nicolas Cage, Mike Stenson, Chad Oman, Norm Golightly and Barry Waldman. The visual effects supervisor is Academy Award®-winner John Nelson.
