Sneak Peek "The Sorcerer's Apprentice"

Sneak Peek a new poster for Disney's upcoming live-action fantasy feature "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", opening in North America July 16.

The new feature is directed by Jon Turteltaub and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, starring Nicolas Cage, Jay Baruchel and Monica Bellucci.

"Apprentice" is a live action 're-imagining' of the 'Sorcerer's Apprentice' segment appearing in Disney's 1940 feature length cartoon "Fantasia", adapting the 1890's symphonic poem by Paul Dukas and 1797 ballad by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Premise of the new film follows an average college student (Baruchel) reluctantly recruited to work for a 'sorcerer' (Cage), who gives him a crash course in the art and science of magic, preparing him for battle against the 'forces of darkness' in modern day Manhattan.
