Curiozități

Mosley is a 2019 animated fantasy adventure drama film produced by Huhu Studios. It was written and directed by Kirby Atkins, co-directed by Jun Huang, and co-written by Ge Jing. The film stars Atkins and his daughter Leah as Mosley and Rue respectively, with Rhys Darby, Lucy Lawless, Temuera Morrison, and John Rhys-Davies in supporting roles. The film was released in New Zealand on 10 October 2019 by Rialto Distribution. It is the first New Zealand–Chinese co-production.

Production

Mosley had been in development by Kirby Atkins since 1997 under the name Beast of Burden. John A. Davis and Keith Alcorn of DNA Productions were initially designated as the film's co-producers. Atkins dedicated the film to his mentor Hollywood animator Pres Romanillos. The two had met while working on the 2006 Warner Bros. animated film The Ant Bully.

During an interview with the New Zealand Herald's senior entertainment writer Karl Puschmann, Atkins said that he would spend any spare moment working on the film, adding that "I loved the world and the characters and the idea of it so much I couldn't quit playing with it." By the time Atkins' daughter Leah had turned seven years old, he was ready to begin pre-production, having completed a full storyboard treatment of his script and the dialogue…

In October 2014, Huhu Studios sought help from the New Zealand Film Commission in finding co-production and distribution partners for Beasts of Burden. In May 2015, The Hollywood Reporter reported that China Film Animation, the animation division of the China Film Group had entered into a co-production agreement with Huhu Studios to produce Beasts of Burden, which was allocated a budget of US$20 million.

The film was subsequently renamed Mosley, with several New Zealand media describing it as the first official New Zealand–Chinese co-production. In July 2019, Rhys Darby, Lucy Lawless, and Temuera Morrison were identified as cast members.

Chris Omundsen served as the movie's special effects lead while Grant Watkins served as first assistant editor. The film's executive producers have included Tony Bancroft, Ye Changchun, John Dunn, Jeremie Guiraud, Wu Hongling, Deng Jianxin, Wang Jinle, La Peikang, Jack Sheehan, Zhao Yan, Nathan Yang, and Trevoy Yaxley.
