About Guardians of Ga’Hoole: The Capture:
When Soren, a young owlet, mysteriously falls from his nest one evening, he’s plucked up and taken to the sinister St. Aegolius Academy for Orphaned Owls. Once there, he must use his wits and bravery to escape his captors. If Soren can learn to fly, he might just be able to take refuge with a group of brave owls he’d thought only to be a legend—the Guardians of Ga’Hoole!
Guardians of Ga’Hoole will soon be seen in theaters thanks to director Zack Snyder‘s (Sucker Punch, Watchmen) big-screen adaptation which is slated to hit theaters on September 24th entitled, Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole. The film features the voice talents of Emily Barclay, Abbie Cornish, Emilie de Ravin, Ryan Kwanten, Jay Laga’aia, Miriam Margolyes, Helen Mirren, Sam Neill, Richard Roxburgh, Geoffrey Rush, Jim Sturgess, Hugo Weaving and David Wenham.
