Inkheart is a thrilling adventure that stars Brendan Fraser as Mo Folchart, a father who possesses a secret ability to bring characters from books to life when he reads them aloud.

In an attempt to rescue his daughter, Mo assembles disparate group of friends - both real and magic - and embarks on a journey to save her and set things right. Inkheart features an accomplished cast including Paul Bettany (The Da Vinci Code), Andy Serkis (The Lord of the Rings trilogy) and Eliza Bennett (Nanny McPhee) as Mo’s daughter Meggie.
