I Kill Giants centres around young Barbara Thorson (Madison Wolfe), who struggles through life by escaping into a fantasy life of magic and monsters.
The film is based on American comic book series, first published by Image Comics in 2008, and according to creator Joe Kelly: “It’s a story about a girl who’s a bit of an outsider – she’s funny, but totally in our geekland: she’s obsessed with Dungeons & Dragons, she doesn’t have a lot of friends, she’s a bit of a social misfit. She’s taken her fantasy life a little far, and really only talks about giants to people. She’s convinced that giants are real and giants are coming, and it’s her responsibility to stop them when they show up. This weird little fantasy life that she’s going has started seeping into her real life, and as we see things from her point of view, we see that she sees pixies and she sees signs in the clouds and other things that might be telling her that bad things might be coming.”
It might work for kids, yet it hasn’t got a confirmed release date in the US or UK yet. However – I Kill Giants? I Got Bored.
