Plot[edit]

Tintin(Bell), a young journalist, and his dogSnowyare browsing in an outdoor market inBrussels,Belgium.

Tintin buys a miniature model of a ship, theUnicorn, but is then accosted by Barnaby (Joe Starr) andIvan

Ivanovitch Sakharine(Craig), who both unsuccessfully try to buy the model from Tintin. Tintin takes the ship

home, but it is accidentally broken, resulting in a parchment scroll slipping out of the model and rolling under a

piece of furniture. Meanwhile, detectivesThomson and Thompson(Frost and Pegg) are on the trail of a

pickpocket,Aristides Silk(Toby Jones). Tintin finds that the Unicorn has been stolen. He then visits Sakharine

inMarlinspike Halland accuses him of the theft when he sees a miniature model of the Unicorn, but when he

notices that Sakharine's model is not broken, he realizes that there are two Unicorn models. Once Tintin

returns home, Snowy shows him the scroll and after reading a message written on it, Tintin puts the scroll in his

wallet, but the latter is stolen by Silk.

Later, Tintin is abducted by accomplices of Sakharine and imprisoned on the SS Karaboudjan. He learns that

Sakharine formed an alliance with the ship's staff and led a mutiny to take over control. On board, Tintin meets

the ship's nominal captain,Haddock(Serkis). Haddock is permanently drunk and thus unaware of the

happenings on board his ship. Tintin, Haddock, and Snowy eventually escape from the Karaboudjan in a

lifeboat but the ship's crew tries to ram the lifeboat. This fails because they instead notice an empty lifeboat that

the Captain accidentally released before the escape and ram it instead. Presuming them to have survived by

the number of lifeboats; Sakharine sends aseaplaneto find them, which the trio seize and use to fly towards

the fictitiousMoroccanport ofBagghar, but the seaplane crashes in the desert.

Haddock hallucinates and remembers facts about an ancestor of his, Sir Francis Haddock (Serkis), who was a

17th-century captain of the Unicorn: Sir Francis' treasure-laden ship was attacked by the crew of a pirate ship,

three Unicorn models, each containing a scroll; together, the scrolls can reveal the location of the

sunken Unicorn and its treasure.

The third model is in Bagghar, possessed byOmar Ben Salaad(Gad Elmaleh). Sakharine causes a distraction

in a concert that results in him successfully stealing the third scroll/ After a chase he gains all the scrolls by

having his gang toss Captain Haddock in the ocean to force Tintin to go after him instead of saving the scrolls.

After the boat leaves, Tintin is ready to give up but is persuaded by Haddock to continue. With help from

officers Thompson and Thomson, Tintin and Haddock track Sakharine down, who is revealed to be a

descendant of Red Rackham. They head back to their starting point and set up a trap but Sakharine uses his

pistol to resist arrest. When his gang fails to save him Sakharine challenges Haddock to a final showdown.

Sakharine and Haddock sword-duel with cranes and swords eventually resulting in Sakharine being defeated

and pushed overboard the ship. When climbing ashore, Sakharine is arrested by Thomson and Thompson.

Guided by the three scrolls indicating the location of Marlinspike Hall, Tintin and Haddock find there some of

the treasure and a clue to the Unicorn's location. The film ends with both men agreeing to continue their search

of the shipwreck.

Cast[edit]

Jamie BellasTintin, the film's main protagonist.[13]Bell replacedThomas Sangster, who dropped out when

filming was delayed in October 2008.[14]Jackson suggested Bell take on the role, having cast him

asJimmyin hisKing Kongremake.[15]

Andy SerkisasCaptain HaddockandSir Francis Haddock.[16]Spielberg suggested Serkis, given that he

playedGollumin Jackson'sThe Lord of the RingsandKing Kongin the 2005 remake, which were bothroles requiringmotion capture, and also because he considered Serkis a "great and funny actor".[17]Serkis

joked he was concerned that Jackson wanted him to play Tintin's dog Snowy,[18]who was animated

traditionally, i.e., without motion capture.[7]Serkis remarked upon reading the comics again for the role that

they had a surrealPythonesquequality.[19]The actor researched aboutseamen, and gave Haddock a

Scottish accent as he felt the character had "a rawness, an emotional availability, a more Celtic kind of

feel".[17]

Daniel CraigasIvan Ivanovitch SakharineandRed Rackham, Sakharine being the descendant of Red

Rackham, the pirate who attacked theUnicorn, the ship captained by Sir Francis Haddock.[13]Spielberg

described Sakharine as a "champagne villain, cruel when he has to be but with a certain elegance to him."

Jackson and Spielberg decided to promote Sakharine from a relatively minor character to the main

antagonist, and while considering an "interesting actor" to portray him Spielberg came up with Craig, with

whom he had worked onMunich. Craig joked that he followed "the English tradition of playing bad

guys".[17]

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

Spielberg had been an avid fan ofThe Adventures of Tintin comic books, which he discovered in 1981 when a

review comparedRaiders of the Lost Arkto Tintin.[7]Meanwhile, the comics' creatorHerg, who didn't like the

previous live action film versions and thecartoon, became a fan of Spielberg.Michael Farr, author ofTintin:

The Complete Companion, recalled Herg "thought Spielberg was the only person who could ever do Tintin

justice".[24]Spielberg and his production partnerKathleen KennedyofAmblin Entertainmentwere scheduled to

meet with Herg in 1983 while filmingIndiana Jones and the Temple of Doomin London. Herg died that

week, but his widow decided to give them the rights.[7]A three-year long option to film the comics was finalized

Spielberg commissionedE.T. the Extra-TerrestrialwriterMelissa Mathisonto script a film where Tintin

battlesivoryhunters in Africa.[24]Spielberg saw Tintin as "Indiana Jonesfor kids" and wantedJack Nicholsonto

play Haddock.[26]Unsatisfied with the script, Spielberg continued with production onIndiana Jones and the Last

Crusade. The rights returned to theHerg Foundation.Claude BerriandRoman Polanskibecame interested in

filming the property, whileWarner Bros.negotiated for the rights, but they could not guarantee the "creative

integrity" that the Foundation found in Spielberg.[24]In 2001, Spielberg revealed his interest in depicting Tintin

withcomputer animation.[27]In November 2002, his studioDreamWorksreestablished the option to film the

series.[28]Spielberg said he would just produce the film.[29]In 2004, the French magazineCapitalreported

Spielberg was intending a trilogy based on The Secret of the Unicorn / Red Rackham's Treasure,The Seven

Crystal Balls/Prisoners of the SunandThe Blue Lotus/Tintin in Tibet(which are not a single story, but both

featureChang Chong-Chen).[30]By then, Spielberg had reverted to his idea of a live-action adaptation, and

calledPeter Jacksonto ask ifWeta Digitalwould create a computer-generated Snowy.[6]

We're making them look photorealistic; the fibres of their clothing, the pores of their skin and each individual hair. They look exactly like real people but real

Herg people!

Peter Jackson explains the film's look[31]

Jackson, a longtime fan of the comics,[32]had usedmotion captureinThe Lord of the RingsandKing Kong. He

suggested that a live action adaptation would not do justice to the comic books and motion capture was the

best way of representing Herg's world of Tintin.[6]A week of filming took place in November 2006 inPlaya

Vista, Los Angeles, California, on the stage whereJames CameronshotAvatar.[33]Andy Serkishad been cast,

while Jackson stood in for Tintin.[19]Cameron andRobert Zemeckiswere present during the shoot.[6]The

footage was transmitted toWeta Digital,[33]who produced a twenty-minute test reel that demonstrated a

photorealistic depiction of the characters.[31]Spielberg said he would not mind filming it digitally because he

saw it as an animated film, and reiterated his live action work would always be filmed traditionally.[34]Lead

designer Chris Guise visitedBrusselsto see the inspiration for Herg's sceneries.[35]

An official announcement about the collaboration was made in May 2007, although both filmmakers had to wait

to film it: Spielberg was preparingIndiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulland Jackson was

planningThe Lovely Bones.[31]Spielberg had considered two books to become the main story,The Crab with

the Golden ClawsandThe Secret of the Unicorn, with the main plot eventually following the latter and its

immediate sequelRed Rackham's Treasure. Jackson felt the former's story "wasn't really robust enough to

sustain a feature film", but the filmmakers still included elements from the comic such as the Karaboujan and

the first meeting of Tintin and Haddock. Spielberg invitedEdgar Wrightto write the film, but the filmmaker was

busy and instead recommended other names, includingSteven Moffat.[36]In October 2007, Moffat was

announced as having signed on to write the screenplays for two of the Tintin films.[37]Moffat said he was "love

bombed" by Spielberg into accepting the offer to write the films, with the director promising to shield him from

studio interference with his writing.[38]Moffat finished a draft,[39]but he was unable to do another because of

the20072008 Writers Guild of America strike. He then became executive producer ofDoctor Who, leading

Spielberg and Jackson (the latter of whom is a fan of the show) to allow him to leave and fulfil his duty to the

series.[40]Wright accepted to take over the script, andJoe Cornish, a fan ofTintin with whom Wright was

working at the time, worked on it with him.[36]

More filming took place in March 2008.[19]However, in August 2008, a month beforeprincipal

photographywould have begun,Universalturned down their option to co-produce the film, citing the low box

office ofMonster HouseandBeowulfas well as the directors' usual request for 30% of the gross.Paramount

Pictures(DreamWorks' distributor) had hoped to partner with Universal on the project having spent $30 million

on pre-production. Spielberg gave a ten-minute presentation of footage, hoping they would approve filming to

begin in October. Paramount offered to produce if the directors opted out of their gross percentage deals:

Spielberg and Jackson declined,[14][25]and negotiated withSonyto co-finance and distribute the first film by the

end of October.[41][42][43]Sony only agreed to finance two films, though Jackson said a third film may still

happen.[6]

Filming and visual effects[edit]

Filming began on January 26, 2009, and the release date was moved from 2010 to 2011.[13]Spielberg finished

his film after 32 days of shooting in March 2009. Jackson was present for the first week of filming and

supervised the rest of the shoot via abespokevideoconferencingprogram.[32]Simon Pegg said Jackson's voice

would "be coming over theTannoylike God."[44]During filming, various directors includingGuillermo del

Toro,Stephen DaldryandDavid Finchervisited. Spielberg would try to treat the film like live-action, moving his

camera around.[6]He revealed, "Every movie I made, up until Tintin, I always kept one eye closed when I've

been framing a shot," because he wanted to see the movie in 2-D, the way viewers would. "On Tintin, I have

both of my eyes open."[45]Jackson took the hands-on approach to directing Weta Digital during post-

production, which Spielberg supervised through video conferencing. Jackson will also begin development for

the second film, for which he will be officially credited as director.[15]Spielberg says "there will be no cell

phones, no TV sets, no modern cars. Just timeless Europe."[46]His cinematographerJanusz Kamiskiserves

as lighting consultant for Weta, and Jackson said the film will look "film noirish, very atmospheric." Spielberg

finished six weeks of additional motion-capture filming in mid-July 2009.[6][47]Post production was finished on

September 2011.[48]

To improve the quality of the indoor lighting nuances, Weta Digital and NVIDIA developed aray

tracingsoftware called PantaRay, which required 100 to 1000 times more computation than traditional shadow-

map based solutions.[49]For the performance of "Snowy", various models served as a reference for actors on-

set, manipulated by property master Brad Elliott. Later, a dog's motion was captured digitally, so the animators

John Williamscomposed the musical score forThe Adventures of Tintin. It was Williams' first film score since

2008's Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,[51]as well as his first animated film. Most of the

score was written while the film's animation was still in the early stages, with Williams attempting to employ "the

old Disney technique of doing music first and have the animators trying to follow what the music is doing".

Eventually several cues had to be revised when the film was edited. The composer decided to employ various

musical styles, with "1920s, 1930s European jazz" for the opening credits, or "pirate music" for the battle at

sea.[52]It was released on October 21, 2011 throughSony Classical Records.[53]

The score received overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics.
