The Babe Man's Comeback


That there's a still from Miss Potter, the new film from Chris Noonan, director of Babe: The Sheep Pig. In fact, this will be only his second film but if the first is anything to go by, it should be really very good indeed. Fingers crossed.

On the other hand, you can clearly see Ewen McGregor and Renee Zellweger above, of course, and she's always terrifying prospect. They appear to be looking at the illustrations for one of the titular Miss Potter's books - she's an author, he's her publisher, they have a "secret love."

If you didn't know and haven't worked it out yet, Renee is playing Beatrix Potter, creator of Peter Rabbit, Squirrel Nutkin and Jemima Puddleduck, mammothly successful children's author of old who was also indirectly responsible for the single creepiest feature film ever made.

That still comes courtesy of Blackfilm, who have another couple up too, one of which sadly suggests just how badly Miss Zellweger appears to be acting.
